The Seasonings
If you’re like us and could eat tacos just about any day of the week, you will appreciate that this southwest chicken and rice is basically taking those same flavors and putting them into a bowl! The chicken gets seasoned with a taco seasoning and then we added both coconut milk and chicken broth to the Instant Pot for cooking the chicken. The combo is a little spicy and a touch creamy all at once.
White Or Cauliflower Rice
You can really go with either, whatever your body tolerates best. We’ve tried both, and it turns out great either way. It just happened to be the case that when we made this southwest chicken and rice for taking photos we had white rice on hand. If you are trying to keep this one Whole30 compliant though, make sure you go with cauliflower rice.
Make It A Bowl
Duh….because that is my favorite thing to do! So for this southwest chicken and rice, we’ve used a base of greens (just whatever greens you love and have on hand), white or cauliflower rice and the chicken mixture with some extra saucy goodness spooned on top. Then, we added some healthy fats with a little avocado and sprinkled some chopped green onion on there. You can have this for your Taco Tuesday or any night of the week!
