Ingredients
Method
Cooking the Protein
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the ground chicken, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook for 5-6 minutes until no pink remains and it’s lightly browned.
- Drain any excess fat, then add the taco seasoning and 2-3 tablespoons of water. Stir constantly for 2 minutes until the meat is well-coated and the liquid has mostly evaporated.
- Remove the seasoned protein from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Preparing the Cauliflower Rice
- If using frozen cauliflower rice, microwave for 4-5 minutes. For fresh cauliflower rice, heat a dry skillet over medium heat and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender but still firm.
Assembling the Bowl
- Layer chopped romaine in serving bowls, add a portion of cauliflower rice, then top with seasoned protein, diced avocado, tomatoes, red onion, cheese, and cilantro.
- Finish with dollops of sour cream, salsa, minced jalapeño, and a squeeze of lime juice just before serving.
Notes
Make sure to store each component separately for meal prep to maintain freshness. Can be served with crispy tortilla chips or a refreshing drink.
