PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Place the chicken breast between two sheets of parchment and pound to an even half-inch thickness to ensure even cooking.

• 3

  In a shallow dish, whisk the egg white until it becomes slightly frothy.

• 4

  In a separate shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

• 5

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg white, then press it firmly into the almond flour mixture until both sides are well-coated.

• 6

  Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the crust is golden.

• 7

  Remove from the oven, spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken, and sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

• 8

  Return the chicken to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

• 9

  While the cheese melts, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the zucchini noodles for 2 minutes until just tender.

• 10

  Plate the zucchini noodles and top with the crispy chicken parmesan to serve immediately.
