Tuscan Chicken Zucchini Boats

Tender chicken and zucchini boats stuffed with a flavorful Italian-inspired filling, baked to perfection for a healthy family meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup basil pesto
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Scoop out the centers of the zucchini halves, leaving about 1/4 inch of zucchini all around to create boats. Finely chop the scooped out zucchini flesh.

  2. 2

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken, chopped zucchini flesh, and garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until chicken is cooked through.
