Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 medium Avocado
- 3 cups Cauliflower rice
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 teaspoon Chipotle chili powder
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Lime
- 0.5 bunch Cilantro
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Start by marinating the chicken breasts. In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of olive oil, chipotle chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Coat the chicken breasts evenly with the marinade and let them rest for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, prepare the cauliflower rice by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and cook the marinated chicken breasts over medium-high heat until fully cooked and golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is cooking, dice the avocado and red bell pepper into small cubes. Chop the cilantro roughly.
Juice the lime and set aside for serving.
Assemble the bowls by dividing the cauliflower rice evenly between the serving bowls.
Top the rice with sliced chicken, diced avocado, red bell pepper, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice over the top before serving.
