INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

3 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

0.5 large egg

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.5 cup marinara sauce

0.5 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese

2 cup zucchini noodles

1 tsp fresh basil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Butterfly the chicken breast or pound it between parchment paper to an even thickness.

• 2

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

• 3

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

• 4

  Heat olive oil in a non-stick 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

  Spread the marinara sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with mozzarella; cover the pan for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

• 6

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

• 7

  Plate the zucchini noodles, top with the crispy chicken, and garnish with fresh torn basil.
