Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa verde
1 (12 ounce) package frozen cauliflower rice
¼ cup chicken broth
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Melt butter in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes.
Add bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes.
Stir in salsa verde, cauliflower rice, and broth. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until cauliflower is tender and chicken is cooked through, about 7 minutes.
