Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes on each side until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

Season the cauliflower rice with salt and black pepper, then set aside.
Dice the avocado into small chunks and halve the cherry tomatoes.
Chop the romaine lettuce into thin strips and roughly chop the fresh cilantro.
