INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

1 tbsp almond flour

2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup marinara sauce

0.25 tsp red pepper flakes

1 cup zucchini noodles

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the chicken breast between two sheets of parchment paper and pound to an even half-inch thickness using a meat mallet or heavy skillet.

• 2

  In a shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Press the chicken breast firmly into the parmesan mixture until it is thoroughly and evenly coated on both sides.

• 4

  Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once shimmering, add the chicken and sear for 5-6 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 5

  Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside to rest. In the same skillet, pour in the marinara sauce and red pepper flakes, stirring to pick up any browned bits from the chicken.

• 6

  Add the zucchini noodles to the sauce and toss for 1-2 minutes until they are just tender but still hold their shape.

• 7

  Plate the zucchini noodles and sauce, then top with the crispy parmesan chicken to serve.
