Description
A delicious and healthy Ground Chicken Taco Bowl with fresh ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb Ground Chicken (or substitute with turkey, beef, or plant-based protein)
- 3 cups Cauliflower Rice (fresh or frozen)
- 4 cups Romaine Lettuce (for serving)
- 1 medium Avocado (fresh, to avoid browning)
- 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
- 1 small Red Onion (finely diced)
- 1 cup Mexican Cheese Blend (shredded)
- 0 cup Cilantro (chopped)
- 2 tbsp Taco Seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
- 0 cup Sugar-Free Salsa (adjust quantity to taste)
- 0 cup Sour Cream (can use Greek yogurt)
- 2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice (add before serving)
- 1 small Jalapeño (optional, adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground chicken and cook for about 5-6 minutes until nicely browned and no longer pink.
- Drain any excess fat from the skillet. Sprinkle taco seasoning over the chicken and add 2-3 tablespoons of water. Stir and cook for 2 minutes until well-coated.
- Remove the skillet from heat and let the seasoned chicken rest for about 5 minutes.
- If using frozen cauliflower rice, microwave for 4-5 minutes until heated through. For fresh, sauté in the skillet for 3-4 minutes until tender.
- Layer romaine lettuce in each serving bowl, followed by a scoop of cauliflower rice and seasoned ground chicken. Top with avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and shredded cheese.
- Top with sour cream, drizzle with sugar-free salsa, sprinkle jalapeño if desired, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving.
