INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp almond meal

2 tbsp parmesan cheese

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.5 large egg

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1.5 cup zucchini noodles

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

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

• 3

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, then dredge it through the parmesan mixture, pressing firmly to ensure an even, thick coating.

• 4

  Heat the olive oil in a medium oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown.

• 5

  Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 6

  While the chicken bakes, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan and briefly sauté the zucchini noodles in a separate pan for 2 minutes until just tender.

• 7

  Spread the zesty marinara over the zucchini noodles and top with the crispy parmesan chicken to serve.
