Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups cauliflower rice
  • 2 bell peppers (mixed colors)
  • 1 jalapeño pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 lime
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro

Method

  1. Dice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season with cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. Chop bell peppers and jalapeño. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and sauté peppers and jalapeño until tender, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute. Return chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. Squeeze lime juice over the mixture.
  5. Meanwhile, cook cauliflower rice according to package instructions or sauté in a separate pan with a teaspoon of olive oil until tender, about 5 minutes.
  6. Assemble bowls by dividing cauliflower rice among four bowls, topping with the spicy chicken and pepper mixture.
  7. Garnish with chopped cilantro and an extra squeeze of lime if desired.
