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

  • 1 head cauliflower , cored and cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 bonelesss pork chops
  • 0.5 teaspoons five-spice powder , or to taste
  • 0.25 cups reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons fish sauce
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes
  • 0.13 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 0.75 cups roughly-chopped mushrooms
  • 1 small yellow onion , finely chopped, or more to taste
  • 0.5 cups carrot , diced
  • 0.25 freshs poblano chile pepper , diced, or to taste
  • 2 eggs , beaten
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onion

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pulse cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles rice.

  2. 2

    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.

  3. 3

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

  4. 4

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

  5. 5

    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.
