Lemon Parmesan Chicken with Zucchini Noodles
I am so excited to partner with Green Giant today and to work with their new Veggie Spirals for this dish! If you’re busy like the rest of us, these veggie spirals are a perfect swap-in for traditional pasta and are super convenient! You don’t need to grab your spiralizer and your veggies, it’s all ready to go for you!
Green Giant Veggie Spirals™ are made with only the vegetable, are naturally gluten-free, and come without sauce or seasoning, so you can prepare them just the way you like! They come in beet, butternut squash, carrot, and zucchini and are great for throwing together a quick and healthy meal. I know my non-cooking hubby will be pulling these out of the freezer when he has to cook for himself!!
These lemon garlic noodles are:
- Creamy
- Bright
- Flavorful
- Veggie Packed
- Low Carb
- A perfect healthy weeknight meal!

Ingredients
- 2 packages Green Giant Veggie Spirals
- 1-1/2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoon oil
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoon high-quality butter
- 2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2/3 cup broth
- 1/3 cup parmesan
- Lemon slices for garnish
- Parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook zucchini noodles according to package instructions. Drain well.
- Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and brown chicken pieces, about 3-4 minutes per side depending on the thickness. Cook in batches if necessary. Remove chicken from pan.
- To the skillet, add garlic, and cook until fragrant about 30 seconds.
- Add butter, oregano and lemon zest. Pour chicken broth to deglaze making sure to scrap up all the browned bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Turn heat to medium-high to bring sauce and chicken up to a boil. Immediately lower the heat and stir in the parmesan cheese. Place chicken back in pan and let gently simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until sauce has slightly reduced and thickened up. Taste and adjust seasoning.

Is the nutrients info per serving or for whole dish?
We loved the fresh flavors of this lighter dinner. We didn’t bother to cut up the chicken but just pounded each breast thin, which made it even easier. I prefer fresh zoodles, about 3 zucchini for 2 people, sauteed in a separate skillet – they’ll be done in about the same amount of time it takes to cook the chicken.
