Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken breast (boneless, skinless, cut into 1-inch pieces)
• 2 cup broccoli florets
• 1 teaspoon avocado oil
• 2 clove garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
• 0.25 cup low-sodium tamari
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon sriracha
• 1 tablespoon water
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cup riced cauliflower (steamed)
• 2 tablespoon green onions (chopped)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the low-sodium tamari, rice vinegar, sriracha, and water. Set aside.
2. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken breast and cook for 4-6 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
3. Add minced garlic and grated fresh ginger to the skillet. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp.
4. Return chicken to the skillet. Pour in the prepared sauce and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring, until the sauce slightly thickens and coats the chicken and broccoli. Season with black pepper.
5. Meanwhile, prepare the riced cauliflower according to package directions (microwave or stovetop steaming) or steam freshly riced cauliflower until tender.
6. Divide the Chicken & Broccoli Skillet among four bowls and serve over the steamed riced cauliflower. Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired.
