INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp parmesan cheese

2 tbsp almond flour

0.5 large egg

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1 medium zucchini

1 tsp olive oil

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Spiralize the zucchini into thin noodles and set them aside on a paper towel to drain excess moisture.

• 3

  In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine the parmesan cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, then coat it thoroughly with the parmesan-almond mixture, pressing firmly to ensure the crust adheres.

• 5

  Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms.

• 6

  Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 7

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

• 8

  Flash-sauté the zucchini noodles in a separate pan for 2 minutes until just tender but not mushy.

• 9

  Plate the zucchini noodles, top with the crispy chicken breast, and finish with a generous pour of the warm marinara sauce.
