Paleo Chicken Fried Rice Recipe

Craving takeout but not the bloat, sugar, or mystery oils that come with it? This quick and easy take on fried rice delivers the bold, savory flavor you love—without the heavy carbs or questionable ingredients.

Instead of white rice, this recipe uses cauliflower as a lighter, vitamin-rich alternative. You can find cauliflower “rice” in the frozen section of most grocery stores. Or make it yourself by grating fresh florets or pulsing them in a food processor to achieve a rice-like texture.

To keep things clean and protein-packed, this recipe skips the usual mystery meat and uses Paleovalley Pasture Raised Teriyaki Chicken Sticks instead. Since they’re fully cooked, there’s no prep required—just chop and toss for bold, sweet-and-savory flavor with zero hassle.
