A delightful combination of sweet chili grilled chicken paired with creamy coconut-lime cauliflower rice, perfect for a weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 head of cauliflower, grated
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • Juice of 1 lime

  2. Prepare the grill or grill pan by preheating to medium-high heat and lightly greasing it with oil.
  3. Cook the chicken on the grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Brush with remaining marinade as it cooks.
  4. Grate the cauliflower and sauté it in a skillet with melted coconut oil over medium heat, seasoning with salt and pepper.
  5. Add lime juice to the sautéed cauliflower after about 4-5 minutes of cooking.
  6. Finish the chicken by letting it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.
  7. Serve the coconut-lime cauliflower rice topped with sliced chicken and garnished with chopped cilantro.
