Pesto Chicken Zoodles

To make the pesto chicken zoodles recipe you will need to have a few things on hand:

  • 2 large zucchini, spiraled
  • 1 Tbsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
  • 2 8oz chicken breasts seasoned, grilled, and sliced (batch cook chicken for the week to save time!)
  • 3/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled
  • 1 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup olive oil (separated into 2 – 1/4 cups)
  • salt and pepper to taste

To get started, place 1/4 cup of olive oil into a medium saucepan and allow to heat on medium heat. Once warm, place zucchini in pan and then sprinkle with garlic salt and cajun seasoning. Toss with tongs to get all of the zucchini coated with oil and seasoning. Cover with a lid and steam for two to three minutes. Remove lid, toss zucchini noodles again and then cover for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
