Ingredients

  • 3-4 chicken breast (pounded out with a meat tenderizer)
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 3 zucchini (sliced )
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese
  • 2 tbsp crunchy onion chili oil (found with the seasonings or in the asian section)
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 tbsp honey

Directions

  1. 1

    Mix together the paprika, garlic, onion, oregan, salt + pepper and set aside.

  2. 2

    Slide the zucchini and set aside.

  3. 3

    Pound out the chicken using a meat tenderizer for about 10-15 second per side.

  4. 4

    Heat up a large skillet to a medium high heat.

  5. 5

    Season the chicken with the seasoning, reserving about 1/2 tbsp of the seasoning to put on the zucchini later on.

  6. 6

    Add 1 tbsp of olive oil to the skillet and cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side. You do not have to cook it all the way through because we will transfer it to the oven.

  7. 7

    In the meantime, preheat the over to 425℉.

  8. 8

    After you have a good, brown color on both sides of the chicken, transfer it to a sheet pan, top with feta cheese and drizzle on the crunchy chili oil/paste.

    Pop the chicken in the oven for about 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165℉.

  10. 10

    While the chicken is cooking, add 1 tbsp of olive oil to the skillet and cook the zucchini until desired tenderness. You can use the remaining seasoning to season the zucchini or just do salt + pepper.

    Once the chicken is done, top with sliced avocado and a drizzle of honey.

    Serve with the zucchini and enjoy!
