Low Carb Shrimp Mock Fried Rice Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by aerin8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups raw cauliflower
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons finely diced red bell pepper
4 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions
1/2 cup cooked salad shrimp
1/4 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 large eggs, beaten
Salt to taste, if needed.

Steps:

1. Grate the fresh cauliflower using the largest holes of a cheese grater. You can also use a food processor fitted with a grating blade. 2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper and 3 tablespoons of the green onions, and cook for 1 minute. 3 Add the cauliflower, shrimp, and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. 4 Add the soy sauce and stir. Add the eggs to one corner of the pan but don't stir for 1 minute. This allows the eggs to cook for a bit, which will prevent them from completely breaking up and disappearing into the mix. 5 As soon as the eggs are soft-cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and gently fold the eggs into the mixture. Add salt or more soy sauce to taste and serve garnished with the remaining 1 tablespoon of green onions. HELPFUL HINTS It's completely normal for there to be extra liquid in the pan when this is finished. Use a slotted spoon to drain it as you serve.
