Chicken Fajita Bowl with Cauliflower Rice is a paleo meal-in-a-bowl! Succulent fajita chicken, with colourful peppers, tomatoes, avocado and cilantro-lime cauliflower rice, all in one super bowl, makes a tasty Tex-Mex dinner.

MEALS-IN-A-BOWL HAVE BECOME TRENDY, IT SEEMS.  
Pinterest abounds with all kinds of options for bowl meals. I love these bowls because they make sense to me. If I’m creating a meal and making sure the flavours complement one another, then why would I not allow them to cosy up to one another and share their tastiness with their neighbour instead of being separated on a plate? Besides, on those lazy, casual nights, a bowl on my lap on the couch while Netflixing (is that a word?) is much easier to handle than a dinner plate.

THE CAULIFLOWER RICE BANDWAGON IS STILL ROLLING ALONG.

In fact, it’s gathering speed, and if you haven’t jumped on it yet, you must. Cauliflower rice is absolutely delicious and incredibly versatile, taking on the flavour of whatever you decide to season it with. While most of North American seems to be complaining about the high price of cauliflower, for some reason cauliflower imported from California is dirt cheap in local markets now.



Chicken Fajita Bowl with Cauliflower Rice

Ingredients

2 large skinless boneless chicken breasts
1 tbsp oil (like grapeseed)
1 small red onion, sliced thinly
3 bell peppers, red, orange, and yellow
1 cup fresh tomatoes, chopped
1 avocado, peeled, pit removed and sliced
1 cup cauliflower rice with cilantro and lime
Marinade
2 tbsp lime juice or lemon juice
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Instructions

  • If your chicken breasts are quite thick, slice them horizontally so they will cook quickly. Set aside in a glass dish.
  • Combine all marinade ingredients and pour over chicken breasts. Allow to marinate for 1 - 2 hours or up to 8 hours in the fridge.
