Ingredients:

- 1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

- 1 cup salsa

- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

- 2 tbsp olive oil

- Salt and pepper to taste

- 1 tsp chili powder

- 1 tsp cumin

Direction:

1. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

 

2. Add the bite-sized pieces of chicken to the skillet and season with salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook until chicken is fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

 

3. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.

 

4. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and the riced cauliflower. Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 5 minutes until the cauliflower is slightly softened.

6. Pour in 1 cup of salsa and stir everything together. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.

 

7. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the skillet and cover with a lid. Let the cheese melt for 2-3 minutes.

 

8. Remove the lid and stir the cheesy chicken and cauliflower mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

 

9. Serve hot and enjoy your Cheesy Salsa Chicken & Cauliflower Rice Skillet! Optional toppings include diced avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
