INGREDIENTS

3.5 oz chicken breast

1 large egg

2 tbsp almond flour

2 tbsp parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp olive oil

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1 cup zucchini noodles

PREPARATION

• 1

  Butterfly the chicken breast by slicing it horizontally to ensure a thin, even thickness for uniform cooking.

• 2

  Whisk the egg in a shallow bowl until well combined.

• 3

  In a separate shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 4

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

• 5

  Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

• 6

  Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

• 7

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

• 8

  Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest; in the same skillet, sauté the zucchini noodles for 2 minutes until just tender.

• 9

  Serve the crispy chicken over the zucchini noodles and top with the warm marinara sauce.
