Chicken & Spanish Cauliflower

I learned about the paleo diet from some friends who now have tons of energy and are super fit. Since then, I've changed my eating habits, too. Everyone from my dad to my little nephew loves this chicken in Spanish cauliflower rice. -Megan Schmoldt, Westminster, Colorado

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think it could have used less cayenne pepper.

I'm not a big fan of cauliflower rice, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I would definitely make this again, but I might use regular rice instead of cauliflower rice.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. The chicken was also a bit dry.
