Ingredients

  • ground black pepper

  • salt

  • cooking spray

  • 2 tbsp. fresh basil leaves, chopped

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 4 zucchini, spiralized

  • 2 1/2 cups marinara

  • 1 tsp. water

  • 2 egg whites

  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder

  • 1 tsp. dried oregano

  • 2 tbsp. flaxseed meal

  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

  • 1/2 cup whole-wheat panko bread crumbs

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Method

  • 01
    Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Cut chicken horizontally and pound each piece about 1/2 inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • 02
    In a shallow dish, combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, flaxseed meal, oregano, and garlic powder. In a separate shallow bowl, whisk together egg whites and teaspoon of water until frothy.
  • 03
    Dip chicken into egg mixture and press into bread crumb mixture, coating both sides. Transfer to a prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.
  • 04
    Spray the tops of the chicken with cooking spray and bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until juices run clear and cooked through.
  • 05
    While chicken is baking, heat marinara on the stove in a small saucepan on medium heat and spiralize zucchini. Set aside on paper towels so that any excess water is soaked up and feel free to sprinkle with a little salt to help with this.
  • 06
    Remove chicken and top each piece with 2 tbsp marinara + 2 tbsp mozzarella and place back in the oven for an additional 5 minutes, until cheese has melted.
  • 07
    Spoon 1/4 cup heated marinara onto zucchini noodles (this will soften your noodles so no need to cook them in a skillet), top with baked chicken parm and sprinkle with fresh basil. Enjoy!
