Shrimp Scampi with Cauliflower Rice image

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.

Time 28m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 head cauliflower, grated
¼ lemon, juiced
2 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 ½ tablespoons heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 packet zero-calorie sweetener
3 ounces cooked jumbo shrimp
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

Steps:

  • Wring out excess moisture from cauliflower using a cheesecloth or towel to make 'rice.'
  • Combine lemon juice, olive oil, cream, parsley, salt, garlic powder, white pepper, black pepper, and sugar substitute in a small bowl.
  • 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.
  • 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.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The shrimp were a bit overcooked and the sauce was a bit bland.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I would recommend using less chili flakes if you don't like spicy food.
