Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Chicken:

  • 1 lb. Simply Nature Organic Thin Sliced Chicken Breast Fillets, pounded or cut in half lengthwise so they are flat and thin
  • 1/4 cup Burman’s Hot Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Specially Selected Raw Honey
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • black pepper to taste

For the Rice:

  • 1 cup Simply Nature Organic White Rice
  • 1 package Season’s Choice Riced Cauliflower
  • 12 tablespoons of Simply Nature Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • salt to taste

For the Cucumber Salad:


Instructions

  1. Marinate Chicken: Place chicken, buffalo sauce, honey, garlic powder, paprika, salt, onion powder, and black pepper in a bowl or bag. Place in the fridge to marinate for 30 minutes to 2 hours. 
  2. Cook Rice: Cook rice according to package directions.
  3. Roast Cauliflower: Place cauliflower rice on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast at 425 degrees for 20-30 minutes until partially browned and a little roasty. Add roasted cauliflower rice to cooked rice. (Optional: season with garlic powder, lemon juice, parsley, or parmesan.)
  4. Cook Chicken: Heat a grill pan over high heat. Add a little olive oil if needed, then add the marinated chicken pieces, discarding extra marinade. Cook for a few minutes on each side until nice and browned, and no longer pink on the inside. Remove from the pan and let rest for a few minutes.
  5. Serve: Slice chicken and serve with a scoop of cauliflower rice. Top with sliced cucumber and tomato and a dollop of dill dip or ranch dressing. Yum!

Notes
