    • Add garlic and ginger, cook for another minute until fragrant.
    • Stir in the peas (if using), then add the cooked chicken back into the skillet.
  4. Combine Everything:

    • Drizzle in soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Stir everything well until it’s fully coated and heated through.
    • Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  5. Serve:

    • Plate the cauliflower rice and top it with the chicken and vegetable stir fry.
