Ingredients
  

2 medium zucchinis, spiralized into noodles

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb), cut into bite-sized pieces

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Zucchini: Start by spiralizing the zucchinis into noodles. Use a spiralizer for even noodles and set aside.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once heated, add the chicken pieces and season with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

      Make the Alfredo Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

        Add Cheese: Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy. Season the sauce with additional salt and pepper if necessary.

          Combine Everything: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet with the Alfredo sauce. Gently stir to coat the chicken in the sauce.

            Add Zucchini Noodles: Finally, add the spiralized zucchini noodles to the skillet, tossing everything together for 2-3 minutes until the zoodles are just tender and heated through (avoid overcooking to keep them from getting mushy).

              Serve: Plate the Chicken Alfredo Zoodles, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Enjoy your delicious meal!
