Keto Coconut Green Tea Rice
This Keto rice is infused with flavor and Keto-friendly fats. Our low carb side is prepared with cauliflower rice, green tea, creamy coconut milk, a hint of lime zest, and topped with fresh cilantro and scallions to serve. This makes a great alternative rice dish when you are looking for something a bit different and makes a great accompaniment to Keto Chinese or Thai inspired mains.
What Tea Should I Use?
We have used green tea bags to infuse the cooking liquid for our Keto rice. You may prepare the cooking stock with any kind of green tea you prefer, in the form of tea bags or leaves. If preparing with leaves, be sure to strain and discard the leaves from the liquid. For additional flavor, you could also use lemon green tea bags if preferred and omit the lime zest. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe.
Serving Suggestions
Our low carb rice makes a delicious side to accompany Chinese or Thai inspired Keto mains. The rice perfectly complements a creamy low carb Thai green curry with chicken, shrimp, or a plant-based protein. This also makes a great alternative rice to accompany a simple stir fry recipe. You will find a range of inspiring dishes in our mains section.
