Paleo Chicken Piccata with Zucchini Noodles

Tender chicken piccata paired with nutritious zucchini noodles makes for a delicious dinner option that fits the Paleo diet. This dish is flavorful and free of gluten

Ingredients:

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup almond flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons capers
• 2 medium zucchinis, spiralized into noodles
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

Add salt and pepper to the chicken breasts for seasoning

Press the almond flour onto both sides of the chicken breasts in a shallow dish

One tablespoon of coconut oil should be heated on medium-high heat in a skillet

When the chicken breasts are golden brown and thoroughly cooked, add them and cook for about 45 minutes on each side

After taking the chicken out of the skillet, set it aside

Add the minced garlic and the remaining coconut oil to the same skillet

Saut until fragrant, about 30 seconds

Add the capers, lemon juice, and chicken broth

Simmer for two to three minutes to slightly reduce the sauce

After cooking, return the chicken breasts to the skillet and let them simmer in the sauce for a further two to three minutes

Spiralized zucchini noodles should be sauted for two to three minutes, or until they are just tender, in a separate pan that has been heated to medium heat while the chicken is simmering

With chopped parsley on top, serve the chicken piccata over a bed of zucchini noodles
