Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or olive oil
  • 3 cups fresh cauliflower rice
  • 2 medium carrots, chopped
  • 1 small red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 1½ teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 3/4 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 1¼–1½ lbs cooked and shredded chicken breast
  • Optional garnishes: ranch dressing, hot sauce, sliced green onions
 

Step 1: Prepare the Casserole Dish and Oven

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Grease a 3-4 quart casserole dish and set it aside for later use.

 

Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables

In a large pan over medium-high heat, heat some oil.

Once it’s hot, add the cauliflower rice, diced carrots, diced red pepper, diced yellow onion, garlic powder, dried parsley, and a dash of salt and black pepper.

Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent and the vegetables are partially cooked through, which should take about 10-12 minutes.

Transfer the sautéed vegetable mixture to the prepared casserole dish.

 

Step 3: Prepare the Buffalo Sauce Mixture

In a separate bowl, combine the buffalo sauce, mayo, and eggs.

Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and well mixed.

 

Step 4: Assemble the Casserole

In the casserole dish, mix together the sautéed vegetables with the shredded chicken and the buffalo sauce mixture.

Spread the combined mixture out evenly in the dish to ensure even cooking.

 

Step 5: Bake the Casserole

Bake the casserole uncovered in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is slightly browned.

 

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Remove the casserole from the oven and drizzle with ranch dressing, hot sauce, or additional buffalo sauce.

Sprinkle with sliced green onions and a dash of black pepper for extra flavor.

Serve the casserole hot and enjoy!
