INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

1 large egg

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1 oz shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup zucchini noodles

1 tsp olive oil

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Pound the chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap to an even half-inch thickness to ensure uniform cooking.

• 3

  Whisk the egg in a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together the almond flour, parmesan cheese, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and oregano.

• 4

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then press firmly into the almond flour mixture until thoroughly coated.

• 5

  Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the crust is golden and the chicken is cooked through.

• 6

  Remove the pan from the oven, spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken, and sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella.

• 7

  Return the chicken to the oven and broil for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

• 8

  While the cheese melts, quickly sauté the zucchini noodles in a pan with olive oil for 2 minutes until just tender.

• 9

  Serve the crispy chicken parmesan immediately over the warm zucchini noodles.
