Hen Parmesan is a traditional dish and I’ve upgraded the substances with zucchini noodles so they’re all grain-free!
The rooster is pounded skinny, dredged in almond flour and eggs, fried in ghee, and topped with a little bit of parmesan cheese.
Do you know that Parmigiano Reggiano is a good supply of tyrosine? Tyrosine is required so the thyroid could make thyroid hormones. So, go forward and sprinkle it on high of your salads, meats, greens, and soups!
You’ll be able to serve the rooster alone, with a salad, or with some zucchini noodles. I used this vegetable slicer to create the zucchini noodles.
Hen Parmesan with Zucchini Noodles (Grain Free, Paleo, Primal, Gaps, Gluten Free)
I desire to make use of ghee rather than olive oil on this dish as a result of ghee has a better smoking level. This manner I do know the oil gained’t burn and oxidize whereas I’m cooking. You’ll have leftover spaghetti sauce. You’ll be able to retailer it within the freezer for later use.
For the Noodles:
- 2 kilos zucchini, reduce into noodles utilizing a noodle slicer
- 1/2 teaspoon Celtic sea salt
For the Hen:
- 4 boneless skinless rooster breasts, pounded (click on right here for an excellent how-to video)
- Celtic sea salt
- 1 cup almond flour (if you’re allergic to nuts, then use 1/3 arrowroot flour, 1/3 tapioca flour and 1/3 coconut flour)
- 2 massive eggs, overwhelmed
- 2 tablespoons ghee (click on right here for a simple home made recipe)
- 1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano or Mozzarella (omit if Paleo) (I exploit Pecorino Romano rather than Parmesan as a result of it’s extra economical and has a pleasant salty chew.)
For the Spaghetti Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (24-ounce) jar crushed tomatoes (I desire Eden Natural)
- 1/2 teaspoon Celtic sea salt

Broil till melted.
