ZUCCHINI NOODLES WITH CHICKEN RECIPES

Steps:

• Put the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound with the flat side of a meat mallet or a heavy skillet so they are a uniform thickness. Whisk the lemon juice, mustard, olive oil and garlic in a large bowl. Add the chicken, toss to coat and let stand at room temperature while you heat the grill. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium and oil the grates. Season the chicken with the salt and a few grinds of
  pepper. Grill until marked and cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and let rest.  Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant but not brown, about 15 seconds. Add the zucchini noodles and toss until well coated. Sprinkle in the lemon zest, salt and pepper and cook, tossing frequently, until the zucchini just starts to wilt, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and parmesan and cook until warmed through, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat, add the basil and toss. Serve the chicken with the zucchini noodles and sprinkle with more parmesan.

Steps:

• Using a spiralizer, mandoline, or vegetable peeler, turn the zucchini into thin noodles. Microwave the noodles for 1-2 minutes, then drain any liquid.
• Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chicken, salt, pepper, and garlic and cook until the garlic is beginning to brown and chicken is cooked through, about 7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan.
• Add the cream, Parmesan, and parsley to the pan, stirring until evenly combined. Bring to a boil, then stir until the sauce has reduced by about half, 3-5 minutes. Put the chicken back in the sauce and stir to coat. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Bring to a boil, then stir until the sauce has reduced by about half. Remove from heat.
• Toss the zucchini noodles in with the chicken mixture and stir until the noodles are coated evenly. Serve with more Parmesan and parsley, if desired.
• Enjoy!
