INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz chicken breast

1 large egg

1 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.33 cup marinara sauce

0.5 oz shredded mozzarella cheese

2 cup zucchini noodles

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp fresh basil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth. In a separate shallow dish, combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then press it firmly into the almond flour mixture until evenly coated on both sides.

• 4

  Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 5

  Spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.

• 6

  While the chicken rests, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the zucchini noodles for 2 minutes until just tender but still bright green.

• 7

  Plate the zucchini noodles, top with the crispy chicken parmesan, and garnish with freshly chopped basil.
