Instructions
- Prepare the Cauliflower: In a food processor, pulse cauliflower in batches until it resembles rice (do not overprocess). In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add cauliflower; cook and stir until tender, 5-7 minutes. Remove from pan.
- Cook the Chicken: In the same pan, heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook and stir until no longer pink, 5-7 minutes. Remove from pan.
- Cook the Vegetables: Add onion and red pepper to pan; cook and stir until tender, 5-7 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.
- Combine and Finish: Stir in tomatoes, peas (if desired), tomato sauce, tomato paste, cumin, paprika, pepper, and Bald Buck Seasoning. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 5-10 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in chicken and cauliflower; heat through. Sprinkle with cilantro and, if desired, serve with lime wedges.
