Recipe Summary Spicy Cauliflower Fried 'Rice' With Pork

This is a slightly more spicy (zingy?) take on the paleo-style cauliflower fried rice with pork. You could use any protein. Adjust the poblano chile to mild it down or heat it up as desired.

Ingredients | Spicy Chinese Chicken Fried Rice

1 head cauliflower, cored and cut into florets

2 tablespoons sesame oil

2 boneless pork chops

½ teaspoon five-spice powder, or to taste

¼ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce

1 tablespoon light brown sugar

1 ½ teaspoons fish sauce

1 pinch red pepper flakes

⅛ teaspoon ground ginger

¾ cup roughly-chopped mushrooms

1 small yellow onion, finely chopped, or more to taste

½ cup carrot, diced

¼ fresh poblano chile pepper, diced, or to taste

2 eggs, beaten

2 tablespoons chopped green onion

Directions

Pulse cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles rice.

Heat sesame oil a large wok or skillet over medium heat. Season pork chops with five-spice powder; cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer pork chops to a cutting board to rest.

Whisk soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, red pepper flakes, and ginger together in a bowl.

Return wok to medium heat; cook and stir mushrooms, onion, carrot, and poblano chile until tender, about 4 minutes. Cut pork chops into cubes.

Push mushroom mixture to one side of wok. Add eggs; cook and stir until scrambled, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir mushroom mixture and eggs together in wok. Stir in cauliflower and soy sauce mixture; add pork cubes. Cook until cauliflower is tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Garnish with green onions.

Liquid amino (such as Bragg's(R)) can be used in place of the soy sauce, if desired.

I used small pork chops for this recipe; about the size of your palm.
