I made this Keto Chicken Enchilada Bowl on the stove top, however it can without much of a stretch be made in a moderate cooker or an Instant Pot by including the chicken, enchilada sauce, chiles and onions together and giving them a chance to cook on low warmth throughout the day.
The chicken and sauce blend can ALSO be set up early and solidified so when it's an ideal opportunity to warm ( I would likely give it a chance to defrost and afterward heat in a pot on the stove top) you can simply include a steamer sack of cauliflower rice and your crisp garnishes. Truly basic!
Another choice is make the cauliflower yourself. In case you're curious about the dish, it's really straightforward… just ground cauliflower that you can set yourself up with a new head and a sustenance processor.
