Lazy Keto Chicken Parmesan

I have been craving Italian food, especially Chicken Parmesan. With days spent nursing a baby, chasing a toddler, homeschooling my two oldest, taking care of my home, and running a business I don’t have a lot of time to invest in making dinner. Many days I throw a chicken in the crockpot in the mornings with a little chicken broth not having a clue what I will end up making with it once it’s done.

Earlier this week, I decided to add a little marinara sauce and cheese for an easy keto friendly meal. While you could make this Lazy Chicken Parmesan start to finish in the crock pot, I prefer the taste of the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses baked. In order to keep this keto friendly, I used a cheapo spiralizer to make zoodles. There are many larger countertop spiralizers, but I wanted something simple I could throw in my utensil drawer that wouldn’t take up space in my kitchen. I simply sauteed the zoodles in about a tablespoon of butter with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning for just for a minute or two so they would taste like al dente noodles. It turned out so good. I also whipped up a batch of my Cheddar Garlic Biscuits for an amazing Italian keto friendly meal.
