Directions

  1. Wring out excess moisture from cauliflower using a cheesecloth or towel to make 'rice.'

  2. Combine lemon juice, olive oil, cream, parsley, salt, garlic powder, white pepper, black pepper, and sugar substitute in a small bowl.

  3. Heat a large nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Add shrimp, cook for 1 minute. Add cream mixture, cook until shrimp are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl.

  4. Combine cauliflower rice and soy sauce in the same saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until cauliflower is tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve shrimp on top of the cauliflower rice.

Recipe Note

This is a delicious spin on the carb-rich dish we all love, shrimp and rice. It's a great combination and I'm here to share my healthy keto-friendly spin on this dish. (Tastes exactly like Chinese food.) Garnish with lemon wedge and extra parsley if desired.
