INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

0.5 large egg

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1 oz shredded mozzarella cheese

1 medium zucchini

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a baking sheet with the olive oil.

• 2

  Slice the chicken breast into thin cutlets or use a meat mallet to pound it to an even half-inch thickness.

• 3

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

• 4

  Dip each chicken cutlet into the egg wash, then dredge in the almond flour mixture, pressing firmly so the coating adheres to both sides.

• 5

  Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is firm.

• 6

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

• 7

  Return the pan to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

• 8

  While the chicken finishes, spiralize the zucchini into noodles and lightly sauté them in a pan for 2 minutes until just tender.

• 9

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