Instructions
Heat oil in a very large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute diced bell pepper, celery, and onion for 5 minutes. Push to the sides, and add garlic. Stir for 30 seconds. Push to the side.
Gradually add cauliflower to the skillet and stir-fry for about 7 minutes until lightly browned. Season with paprika and cayenne pepper. Push the sides.
Add shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sear on both sides for 3 minutes each. Stir everything together and cook until shrimp is done. Sprinkle with parsley if desired, and enjoy!
Notes
*Use any protein in place of the shrimp if desired. Tofu, chicken, and steak would all be delicious! *Add extra cooked rice for a more filling dish or serve with a slice of bread.
