Ingredients

• 2 pieces chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon chipotle powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 whole lime
• 2 whole avocados
• 0.25 cup red onion
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 0.25 cup cilantro leaves
• 2 cups cauliflower rice
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 1 whole jalapeño pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the chipotle powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and coat them with the spice mixture evenly.

Step 3

Heat a grill pan or a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Step 4

Let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice it into thin strips.

Step 5

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the cauliflower rice. In a pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat and sauté the cauliflower rice for about 5 minutes, or until tender.

Step 6

Chop the red onion finely, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the jalapeño pepper. Chop the cilantro leaves coarsely.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mash the avocados and stir in the juice of one lime, half of the chopped red onion, and a pinch of salt to taste.

Step 8

In four bowls, divide the cauliflower rice evenly. Top with sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, the remaining red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro.

Step 9

Add a generous scoop of the avocado mash to each bowl before serving.
