Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes.
  2. Add the ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it apart. Cook for 5-6 minutes until browned and no longer pink.
  3. Drain excess fat from the skillet. Sprinkle taco seasoning over the chicken, adding 2-3 tablespoons of water.
  4. Mix thoroughly and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  5. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes.
  6. Prepare the cauliflower rice. For fresh, grate or pulse in a food processor, or microwave frozen for 4-5 minutes.

  8. Finish with dollops of sour cream and salsa, sprinkle with minced jalapeño, and squeeze lime juice over.
