PREPARATION

• 1

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

  Set up two shallow bowls: whisk the egg in the first, and combine almond flour, parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper in the second.

• 3

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, then press firmly into the almond flour mixture until evenly coated on all sides.

  Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes until the coating starts to turn golden and crisp.

• 5

  Spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

  Return to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

  While the chicken finishes, sauté the zucchini noodles in a pan with olive oil over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until just tender.

  Plate the crispy chicken over the zucchini noodles and enjoy immediately.
