Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with paper towels.

  2. Cut zucchini into noodles using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler. Spread on the baking sheet, cover with another layer of paper towels.

  3. Bake zucchini noodles in the preheated oven until dried out, about 30 minutes.

  4. Season chicken with poultry seasoning.

  5. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, cook and stir until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add onion, cook and stir until softened, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir in sun-dried tomatoes, oil, and garlic. Cook until garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.

  6. Stir evaporated skim milk, Parmesan cheese, and vegan cream cheese into the skillet until melted and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt, red pepper flakes, and basil. Stir in zucchini noodles until evenly coated with sauce.

Recipe Note

Healthy and filling, this had even meat-eating DH going for seconds. Quick and easy too! Serve sauce over steamed broccoli instead of zoodles if you prefer.
