Directions:

  1. Prepare the chicken by cutting into 1-inch cubes. Place chicken into a resealable storage bag with the remaining ingredients. Toss to coat evenly. Let chicken marinade for at least 30 minutes.

  3. Reheat the frozen cauliflower rice according to package instructions. Once heated through, place a paper towel on top of the cauliflower rice and press down to soak up the extra liquid. Season with salt and pepper as needed. Set aside
