If you happened to read our recipe for the Seared Pacific Cod with Benihana Ginger Sauce, you would know that we are fans of their garlic fried rice! It takes the traditional Japanese fried rice and adds a simple and genius ingredient called GARLIC BUTTER that just makes everything better! So we decided to make a low-carb/keto version of it. To our surprise, it came out so well that even our non low-carb/keto friends preferred our version! So next time you want to introduce someone to low-carb/keto, this is a great and simple recipe to start off with!
This dish as pictured is keto friendly at ~5g per bowl and a great option for a quick lunch or dinner! The dish offers traditional flavors of Japanese fried rice with a twist of garlic butter, so good that you won’t miss the rice!!
The only ingredient you need to enjoy this dish is soy sauce, which can be purchased on Amazon or any supermarket.
Now, let’s get started!
