INGREDIENTS

4 oz Chicken breast

2 tbsp Almond flour

1 large Egg

0.5 cup Marinara sauce

1 oz Mozzarella cheese

1 tbsp Parmesan cheese

0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

0.5 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 cup Zucchini noodles

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a rimmed 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

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

• 4

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then dredge thoroughly in the almond flour mixture, pressing firmly to create a thick crust.

• 5

  Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and bake for 15 minutes until the coating starts to turn golden.

• 6

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

• 7

  Return to the oven for an additional 5 to 7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

• 8

  While the chicken finishes, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a pan for 2 minutes until just tender, then serve the chicken parmesan directly on top.
