Ingredients
  

Peri Peri Marinade

  • 2 medium red chile
  • 1 medium fresh green chile
  • 1 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Chicken Skewers

  • 24 ounce boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Pepper and Tomato Cauliflower Rice

  • 4 tablespoon butter
  • 1 medium orange bell pepper
  • 1 medium green onion sliced
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 16 ounce cauliflower rice

Instructions
 

  • Using the BROIL function of your oven (alternatively, you can use the grill), roast chili pepper until charred. Set aside.
  • In a saucepan, add garlic, salt, and spices. Add oil and vinegar. Turn heat on to medium and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  • Remove from heat. Add chilies to steep until cool.
  • Transfer to a blender or food processor and pulse until pureed and homogenous.
  • If using wooden skewers, soak in water for at least one hour. In a ziplock bag, add chicken pieces, then cover with marinade.
  • Seal and refrigerate to marinate for at least one hour, a maximum of 24 hours.
  • Skewer chicken pieces.
  • Grill over coals, basting with marinade leftover in the ziplock bag. Alternately, place a griddle pan in the oven and preheat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Once the oven is at temperature, set timer for 6 minutes. Take the griddle pan out and cook the chicken on the dry griddle pan until seared on both sides. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet, return to the oven, and roast for 10-15 minutes or until cooked through, basting halfway with marinade leftover in the ziplock bag.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Saute bell pepper and white tips of green onion until aromatic (save the green sections for plating).
  • Add tomato paste and paprika. Swirl to combine and to toast slightly, about 30 seconds.
  • Add cauliflower rice. Mix well. Continue to cook until dry.
  • Plate with cauliflower rice on the bottom, chicken on top, and topped remaining green onion slices.
