Instructions
 

Prepare the Cauliflower Rice:

    - Begin by making cauliflower rice. Place cauliflower florets in a food processor and pulse until they resemble rice grains. Avoid over-processing; you want a rice-like texture.

      - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

        - Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper and sauté for 5-6 minutes until tender and slightly golden. Remove from heat and set aside.

          Cook the Shrimp:

            - In a mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined.

              - In another large skillet over medium-high heat, add a splash of oil. Once hot, add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until they turn pink and opaque.

                - Pour the honey garlic sauce over the cooked shrimp and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the shrimp.

                  Assemble the Bowl:

                    - In a serving bowl, add a generous scoop of cauliflower rice as the base.

                      - Top with honey garlic shrimp and drizzle any remaining sauce from the pan over the top.

                        - Garnish with sesame seeds, sliced green onions, and optionally, fresh cilantro or parsley.

                          Serve and Enjoy:

                            - Serve warm as a delicious, healthy meal packed with flavor! Enjoy your Honey Garlic Shrimp and Cauliflower Rice Bowl!
