INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

2 tbsp almond flour

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0.5 tbsp avocado oil

0.5 cup marinara sauce

1 oz mozzarella cheese

1.5 cup zucchini noodles

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 small baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, grated parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  Lightly brush the chicken breast with a tiny bit of the avocado oil, then dredge it through the almond flour mixture until thoroughly coated on all sides.

• 4

  Heat the remaining avocado oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the crust is golden and crisp.

• 5

  Spread the marinara sauce over the top of the seared chicken and sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

• 6

  Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and melted.

• 7

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