Combine roasted riced cauliflower with stir-fried ground chicken and egg whites for a new twist on pineapple fried rice.

Ingredients

1 (12 ounce) package frozen riced cauliflower
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 teaspoons curry powder, divided
2 teaspoons garlic powder, divided
2 teaspoons onion powder, divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound ground chicken
5 egg whites
6 green onions, chopped
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks
4 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce, or to taste

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2 Toss cauliflower with olive oil, 3 teaspoons curry powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Spread mixture in a baking pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until slightly browned, about 25 minutes.
4 Heat a pan over medium heat. Add chicken, salt, and pepper; stir in the remaining curry, garlic, and onion powders. Cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer chicken to a large bowl; leave pan on heat.
5 Whisk egg whites with a pinch of pepper. Pour into the pan; cook and stir until eggs are set but still soft, about 3 minutes. Spoon egg whites into the bowl with the chicken; add green onions and the roasted cauliflower rice. Serve fried 'rice' in individual bowls. Add pineapple chunks, a small splash of pineapple juice, and soy sauce to each bowl.
