Ingredients

For the Chicken

* 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips

* 1 tablespoon olive oil

* 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

* 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

* Salt and pepper to taste

For the Sauce

* 2 tablespoons butter

* 3 cloves garlic, minced

* 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes

* 1 cup heavy cream

* 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

* 2 cups fresh spinach

* Salt and pepper to taste

For the Zoodles

* 4 medium zucchini, spiralized

* 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

Season the chicken strips with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 2: Make the Tuscan Sauce

Reduce the heat to medium.

Add butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another minute.

Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.

Whisk in the Parmesan cheese until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.

Add the spinach and cook until wilted.

Step 3: Cook the Zoodles

In a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil.

Cook the zucchini noodles for 2 to 3 minutes, just until slightly softened. Avoid overcooking, as zoodles can become watery.

Step 4: Combine Everything

Return the chicken to the sauce and stir well.

Add the zoodles and gently toss until coated in the creamy sauce.

Serve immediately with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.

Tips for Perfect Zoodles

* Pat spiralized zucchini dry with paper towels before cooking.

* Cook zoodles briefly to avoid excess moisture.

* Serve immediately for the best texture.

* Freshly grated Parmesan melts more smoothly than pre-shredded cheese.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheat gently on the stovetop over low heat. Because zucchini releases moisture during storage, the sauce may thin slightly upon reheating.
