King Crab Cauliflower Fried Rice

King Crab fried rice is one of my favorite dishes we often order when dining at a local Japanese restaurant. Every time I order it, I always say I'm going to try this with riced cauliflower, so finally I did and it was SO good!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb 2 frozen King crab legs
  • 24 oz riced cauliflower
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • pinch of salt
  • cooking spray
  • 1/2 small onion (diced fine)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 5 scallions (diced, whites and greens separated)
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce or gf soy sauce (use Liquid Aminos for W30, Paleo)

Instructions

  1. If making the rice yourself, place a few florets at a time in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower is small and has the texture of rice or couscous – don’t over process or it will get mushy. Set aside and repeat with the remaining cauliflower in a few batches.
  2. In a large pot, add about 2 inches of water and bring to a boil. Add the crab leg and cook, covered until heated through, about 10 minutes. When cooked, remove the crab from the shell and lightly flake.
  3. Season eggs with salt. Heat a large saute pan or wok over medium heat and spray with oil. Add the eggs and cook, turning a few times until set; set aside.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low, add the sesame oil and saute onions, scallion whites, and garlic about 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft. Raise the heat to medium-high.
  5. Add the cauliflower “rice” to the saute pan along with soy sauce. Mix, cover and cook approximately 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is slightly crispy on the outside but tender on the inside.
  6. Add the egg and crab, remove from heat and mix in scallion greens.
