Low Carb Chicken Sushi
(with Cauliflower Rice)
Ingredients
1 serving (3-4 oz) Cauliflower Rice (recipe here)
2 tbsp psyllium husk (optional, helps the rice be "sticky")
2 oz raw Haas Avocado
2 oz raw cucumber
2 tbsp Rice Vinegar
4 tbsp Jalapeño (or choice) Cream Cheese
1/2 cup cooked chicken (canned or cooked; could sub crab)
2 roasted seaweed sheets (+1 bamboo mat; makes life way easier)
Sriracha Mayo
Serves: 1
Directions
1. Make Cauliflower Rice; heat with Rice Vinegar and add in psyllium husk; set aside to cool.
2. Lay 1 roasted seaweed sheet flat on bamboo mat (I place my bamboo rolling mat in a gallon size ziplock bag for cleaning ease)
3. Mix cooked chicken with cream cheese, spread 1/2 mixture onto base layer of sheet (this acts as a binder for the cauliflower rice to hold in place)
4. Spread 1/2 of your prepared, cooled cauliflower rice as the next layer.
5. Spread out 1 oz avocado (diced, sliced, or mashed to your preference) as the next layer.
6. Spread out 1 oz cucumber strips onto top layer.
7. Add any additional ingredients not listed here (carrots, mayo, red peppers, etc.)
8. Tightly roll up seaweed sheet into a roll. Do NOT cut roll yet.
9. Repeat steps 2-8 for sheet number 2.
10. Place both rolled, UNcut rolls onto a plate and place flat in the freezer for ~5-10 minutes. This allows the rolls to firm up a bit which makes cutting them much easier and less messy.
11. Cut firmed up rolls into slices with a very sharp knife.
12. Top with drizzled sriracha mayo. Eat with chopsticks.
