Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced
  • 2 medium zucchinis, spiralized
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a simmer.
  5. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
  6. Add zucchini noodles and toss to coat in the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes until tender.
  7. Return chicken to the skillet and mix well.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
  • Spiralize zucchini just before cooking to prevent excess moisture.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste.
