Prep 10 min Cook 35 min Serves 4 Source

Ingredients

  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 tablespoons avocado oil (divided)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 3 large zucchini (spiralized)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 4 cups baby spinach
  • 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 425 degrees fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and coat both sides with 2 tablespoons of the avocado oil. Sprinkle the dried garlic, other herbs and salt and pepper on both sides of the chicken. Cook the chicken for 20-30 minutes or until a digital thermometer reaches 165 degrees fahrenheit. Remove the chicken from the oven, let sit for 2-3 minutes, then dice it up.

  3. 3

    Heat 2 tablespoons of avocado oil in a large sauté pan on medium heat. Add the minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds. Then add the baby spinach and stir until it's wilted down, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Once all of the spinach has wilted down, add the zucchini noodles and diced chicken. Stir together for 1-2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add a portion of the zucchini noodles to plate and sprinkle with fresh parmesan cheese and cracked black pepper.
