INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp parmesan cheese

1 large egg

0.5 cup marinara sauce

0.5 oz mozzarella cheese

1 cup zucchini noodles

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 (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until well combined. In a second shallow bowl, mix the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge it through the almond flour mixture, pressing firmly so the coating adheres.

• 4

  Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle or spray with olive oil to help it crisp up.

• 5

  Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.

• 6

  Remove from the oven and spoon the marinara sauce over the center of the chicken, then sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

• 7

  Return to the oven for an additional 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

• 8

  While the cheese melts, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a pan for 2 minutes until just tender.

• 9

  Serve the crispy chicken parmesan over the bed of zucchini noodles immediately.
