INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz Chicken breast

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 large Egg

1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup Marinara sauce

0.75 oz Part-skim mozzarella cheese

1.5 cup Zucchini noodles

1 tsp Fresh basil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Butterfly the chicken breast and pound it to an even thickness to ensure it cooks uniformly.

• 3

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

• 4

  Dredge the chicken thoroughly in the egg wash, then press it firmly into the almond flour mixture until well coated on all sides.

• 5

  Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 3 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown.

• 6

  Spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken and top with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

• 7

  Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 8

  While the chicken bakes, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a separate pan for 2 minutes until they are just tender-crisp.

• 9

  Plate the crispy chicken over the zucchini noodles and garnish with fresh chopped basil before serving.
