For the Keto Teriyaki Sauce
- ¼ cup coconut aminos
- 1 tbsp sugar-free brown sweetener

For the Rice Bowl
- 4 cups cauliflower rice
- 1 tbsp butter

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, sweetener, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and water. Sprinkle in the xanthan gum while whisking continuously until smooth. Set aside.
Step 2: Cook the Turkey
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook for 6–8 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon until browned and fully cooked.
Step 3: Add Aromatics
Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced green onions. Cook for another 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 4: Add the Teriyaki Sauce
Pour the prepared keto teriyaki sauce over the turkey. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
Step 5: Cook the Cauliflower Rice
While the turkey simmers, melt the butter in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 6: Assemble the Bowls
Divide the cauliflower rice among four serving bowls. Spoon the teriyaki turkey mixture over the top.
Step 7: Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and extra green onions. Add sliced avocado or cucumber if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious keto teriyaki turkey rice bowl.
