About

This keto version of mapo tofu is very easy to cook on a weeknight. I love how authentic the flavor is and how quickly it comes together. Serve it hot over cauliflower rice and a lightly seasoned green vegetable. 1/8 oz of szechuan peppercorns is 1 tablespoon of whole dry peppercorns.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 pound chicken ground raw
  • 1 pound shrimp raw
  • 1 pound tofu, raw (not silken), cooked, soft
  • ¼ cup hot chili sauce (sriracha)
  • ⅛ ounce szechuan peppercorns
  • ⅔ cup chicken broth
  • ½ teaspoon coarse kosher salt by morton
  • 2 tablespoon tamari sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat a wok or large nonstick skillet until very hot. Add the avocado oil, then the ground chicken. Cook the chicken until no longer pink.
  2. Then add the chopped shrimp. Stir until no longer pink.
  3. Add in the soft tofu. Break up the tofu into smaller pieces to incorporate it. Add in the kosher salt and soy sauce.
  4. Add the water and sriracha.
  5. Stir well. Toast the szechuan peppercorns and then grind them into a coarse powder. Add this as well. Cook until everything is incorporated and hot. Serve over cauliflower rice.
