Directions

Prep 15 minCook 50 min
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground chicken, breaking it apart with a spoon. Add salt and pepper, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

    Reduce heat to low, add minced garlic to the chicken, and cook for 1 minute, stirring often. Add the pasta sauce and cook for an additional 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    While the chicken cooks, cut the zucchinis in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and center, leaving a ¼ inch thick zucchini boat.

    Place the zucchini boats cut-side up in the prepared baking dish.

  6. 6

    Fill the zucchini boats with the chicken mixture, pressing it down with the back of a spoon.
