Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs Chicken Breast
  • 3 medium Bell Peppers (mixed colors)
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 4 cups Cauliflower Rice
  • 2 tbsp Fajita Seasoning (gluten-free)
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 medium Avocado
  • 4 Lime Wedges
  • 0.25 cup Cilantro

Instructions

  1. 1Cut the 1.5 lbs of chicken breast into thin strips. Slice the 3 medium bell peppers (mixed colors) and the 1 medium onion into thin strips.
  2. 2Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C). Add the chicken strips and cook for 5-7 minutes, until browned and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Add the 2 tbsp of fajita seasoning and toss the chicken to coat evenly.
  3. 3Add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet with the chicken. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and slightly tender.
  4. 4Prepare the 4 cups of cauliflower rice. If using pre-riced cauliflower, heat it in a separate pan with a little olive oil over medium heat (about 350°F/175°C) for 5-7 minutes, until tender. If using whole cauliflower, pulse florets in a food processor until rice-like, then saute in a pan with a little olive oil until tender.
  5. 5Slice the 2 medium avocados.
  6. 6Divide the prepared cauliflower rice among 4 bowls. Top each bowl with the chicken and vegetable mixture from the skillet. Garnish each bowl with slices of the 2 medium avocados, 4 lime wedges, and 0.25 cup of chopped cilantro.
