PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Place the chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound it to an even half-inch thickness.

• 3

  In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated parmesan, garlic powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Brush the chicken breast lightly with olive oil, then dredge it through the parmesan mixture, pressing firmly to adhere the crust.

• 5

  Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until the coating is golden and the chicken is cooked through.

• 6

  While the chicken bakes, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.

• 7

  Sauté the zucchini noodles in a separate pan for 2 minutes until just tender, then drain any excess liquid.

• 8

  To serve, plate the zucchini noodles, top with the zesty marinara, and place the crispy parmesan chicken on top.
