Immediately include 2 tablespoons coconut aminos, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, 1 teaspoon fish sauce, and 1 teaspoon sriracha, along with a small pinch of salt to the skillet mixture, slightly toss to coat and continue to cook until the cauliflower begins to brown. While the cauliflower / “Rice” browns, place another skillet over medium heat and the minced garlic and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil along with the cubed chicken.
