Ingredients
  

For the Chicken Zucchini Bake
  • 2 cups cooked chicken shredded
  • 2 medium zucchinis sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Baking dish
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures your bake will cook evenly.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, sliced zucchinis, cherry tomatoes, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and mix well so everything is coated.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly. I like to use a 9x13 inch dish for this recipe.
  4. Step 4: Top the mixture with shredded mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
  5. Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden. Your kitchen will smell amazing at this point!
  6. Step 6: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil if desired before serving. Enjoy every bite!
