Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add 1 lb ground beef and cook, breaking apart with a spatula, for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove beef to a bowl and set aside.
- Step 2: Lower heat to medium and add 1 tbsp avocado oil to the same skillet. Add 1 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 4 sliced scallions. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Step 3: Add 4 cups cauliflower rice to the skillet, stirring well to combine with aromatics. Cook for 5-6 minutes until cauliflower softens but remains slightly firm.
- Step 4: Return cooked ground beef to the skillet and stir in 2 tbsp coconut aminos, 1 tsp sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp red chili flakes if using. Cook for another 2 minutes until heated through and flavors meld.
- Step 5: Serve hot garnished with additional scallions if desired.
