Taco Lime Grilled Chicken with Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice

Now that Memorial Day has come it is officially time for all the grilling recipes! This one turned out delicious and had very little prep and cook time. I had some Primal Palate's taco seasoning for this chicken recipe, but if you do not have that you can simply make the homemade taco seasoning I listed below. I used just over 3 lbs of chicken breast and thought 2 Tablespoons of seasoning was plenty enough, but feel free to use a little more if you would like to. While the chicken was marinating I started making the cauliflower rice, and as always I used a couple bags of frozen Green Giant Riced Cauliflower. I've seen a couple other brands selling frozen cauliflower rice too, so just make sure to check the ingredients to verify there is only cauliflower and no unwanted added ingredients. Anyways, by the time the cauliflower rice was done, I put the chicken on the grill. This gave me some time to evenly divide the cauliflower rice between 8 meals. The only thing missing from this recipe is Fat! If you are in need of more Fat in this meal then definitely top with some avocado or guacamole. You can also add a couple Tbsp of coconut oil to the pan before mincing the garlic and cauliflower rice. This is a taco recipe after all, so dress it up how you like and enjoy! 

​Taco Lime Grilled Chicken 
Ingredients:
  • 2 Tbsp Primal Palate's taco seasoning (Below is a homemade seasoning if you don't have the Primal Palate seasoning)
    • 2 Tbsp Chili Powder
    • 2 tsp Cumin
    • 1/2 tsp Paprika
    • 2 tsp dried Oregano
    • 1 tsp Onion Powder
    • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
    • 2 tsp Salt
    • 1 tsp Black Pepper
    • 1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
    • 1/2 tsp ground Coriander
  • 1/2 cup lime juice (I used the juice from 3 Limes)
  • 3 pound boneless and skinless chicken breasts
Directions:
  1. Mix the taco seasoning and lime juice, cover the chicken in the mixture and optionally marinate for 30 minutes to over night.
  2. Grill over medium-high heat until cooked through, about 3-5 minutes per side, let sit for 5 minutes and slice before enjoying!

Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice
Ingredients:
  • 1 head of cauliflower (I used two bags of frozen cauliflower rice)
  • 2 limes
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 handful chopped cilantro
Directions:
  1. (If making own cauliflower rice) Remove the leaves from the cauliflower, and cut the head in half. Remove the cauliflower from the core so you only have the florets. Place half the cauliflower into the processor and process until only small pieces remain. Remove from the processor and place into a pan. Process the remaining cauliflower repeating the steps.
  2. Mince the garlic and add to the cauliflower in the pan. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. When cauliflower is slightly toasted, and garlic cooked, remove from heat.
  3. Toss with cilantro and juice from the whole lime.
