Begin by marinating the chicken. In a small bowl, mix together salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and chipotle chili powder.
Rub the spice mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Set aside while you prepare other ingredients.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through and juices run clear. Remove from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and reduce heat to medium. Add the riced cauliflower and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender.
Add lime juice and half of the chopped cilantro to the cauliflower rice, stirring to combine. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, if needed.
To make the avocado topping, mash the diced avocado with the remaining lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the sour cream and mix until smooth.
Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked cauliflower rice among four bowls. Top each with an equal amount of sliced chicken.
Add the diced tomato, red onion, shredded lettuce, and a dollop of the avocado sour cream mixture to each bowl.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese and the remaining chopped cilantro over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful low carb chipotle bowl!
