PREPARATION

• 1

  Butterfly the chicken breast by slicing it horizontally to ensure even thickness for quick cooking.

  Whisk the egg in a shallow bowl; in a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, parmesan, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

• 3

  Dip the chicken into the egg wash, then press firmly into the almond flour mixture until both sides are fully coated.

• 4

  Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes per side until the crust is golden and crispy.

• 5

  Pour the marinara sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella.

• 6

  Cover the skillet with a lid for 2 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and completely melted.

• 7

  Remove the chicken from the pan and briefly sauté the zucchini noodles in the remaining juices for 1 to 2 minutes until just tender.

• 8

  Serve the crispy chicken over the zucchini noodles and garnish with freshly chopped basil.
