How to Make It
Step 1
Start by butterflying a chicken breast and seasoning it with the first amount of salt, pepper, garlic, and first amount of paprika.
Step 2
Heat the first amount of olive oil in a small pan on medium-high heat and place in the chicken breast. Place a lid over the pan to seal the juices in the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
Step 3
Transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board to cool, leaving any excess juices in the pan. Once cooled enough, slice the chicken into thin strips.
Step 4
While the chicken is cooling, melt the butter in the same pan over a low heat and whisk in the chicken broth. Season with the second amount of paprika and salt as well as the onion powder. Bring the broth to a simmer.
Step 5
Turn the heat down low so the broth is just under a simmer. Whisk in the cream. Then, return the sliced chicken to the sauce. Continue cooking the sauce on a very low heat for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly. This sauce will still be very thin and used later in the recipe.
Step 6
In a new, wide pan, heat the final amount of olive oil over medium heat and toss in the cauliflower rice. Season with the remaining seasonings. Toss and cook the rice until it turns a light golden brown.
Step 7
Turn the cauliflower rice to a low heat and stir in the sauce and chicken. Make sure all the rice gets coated in the sauce so it soaks it in. Keep the pan on a low heat, stirring the chicken and rice until all ingredients are heated through and you see the sauce coagulate slightly around the cauliflower.
