INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp almond flour

2 tbsp grated 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

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1.5 cups zucchini noodles

1 tsp fresh parsley

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 bowl, combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

• 3

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, then press firmly into the parmesan-almond mixture until fully coated.

• 4

  Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 2 minutes per side until the crust is golden and fragrant.

• 5

  Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 6

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

• 7

  Using the same skillet from the chicken, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles for 2-3 minutes until just tender but still firm.

• 8

  Plate the zucchini noodles, top with the crispy chicken breast, and spoon the zesty marinara over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley.
