PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the chicken breast between two sheets of parchment paper and pound to an even 1/2-inch thickness.

• 2

  Whisk the egg in a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

• 3

  Dip the chicken into the egg wash, then press firmly into the almond flour mixture to coat both sides thoroughly.

• 4

  Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until the crust is golden and the chicken is cooked through.

• 5

  Spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken and top with the fresh mozzarella; cover the pan with a lid for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

• 6

  Serve the chicken over a bed of lightly sautéed zucchini noodles and garnish with fresh basil.
