INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp almond flour

2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.5 large egg

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese

1.5 cup zucchini noodles

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp olive oil

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 half egg until smooth; in a second bowl, 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 firmly into the almond flour mixture until both sides are thoroughly coated.

• 4

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

• 5

  Remove from the oven, spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken, top with the mozzarella cheese, and broil for 2 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

• 6

  While the chicken rests, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a non-stick pan over medium heat for 2 minutes until tender-crisp, then serve the chicken directly on top.
