Chipotle Bowl with Chicken & Cauliflower Rice

Chipotle Bowl with Chicken & Cauliflower Rice

Use leftover rotisserie chicken for quick prep and extra flavor. Toast the cauliflower rice until golden to deepen flavor and maintain a firmer texture. Serve immediately so the cauliflower rice stays crisp and the cheese melts slightly.
