    Ingredients

    • 4 medium zucchinis

    • 1 cup marinara sauce

    • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

    • 1.5 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

    • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese

    • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

    • 0.5 tsp garlic powder

    • 0.5 tsp salt

    • 0.25 tsp black pepper

    Directions

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a large baking dish by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray.
    • Slice each zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out the center, creating a boat, then place them in the baking dish.
    • Mix the shredded chicken with marinara sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
    • Fill each zucchini boat with the chicken mixture, ensuring they are generously filled to the top edges.
    • Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the filled zucchini boats, followed by a layer of mozzarella cheese.
    • Add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top of the mozzarella for an extra hint of flavor.
    • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until zucchini is tender.
    • Take the dish out of the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
