Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups cauliflower rice
- 1 medium, sliced red bell pepper
- 1 sliced avocado
- 1 cut into wedges lime
- 0.25 cup chopped cilantro
Instructions
Begin by flattening the chicken breast to ensure even cooking. You can do this by placing the chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pounding it with the flat side of a meat mallet.
In a small bowl, mix together chipotle chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the seasoning mixture over both sides of the chicken breast to coat evenly.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breast.
Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Remove from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, then add the cauliflower rice and sliced red bell pepper.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower rice is tender and the peppers have softened.
To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked cauliflower rice and peppers among four bowls.
Top each bowl with sliced chicken, avocado, a wedge of lime, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.
Serve immediately, squeezing lime juice over the top for an added citrusy flavor.
