Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon chili powder or to taste
- ½ teaspoon sweet paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 4½ tablespoons butter divided
- 12 ounces bag of zucchini noodles
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup heavy cream you can also use Half & Half

Instructions
- Make the seasoning mix and season the chicken. In a small bowl, combine the Italian Seasoning, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and ground pepper; mix together and sprinkle over the chicken tenders.
- Cook the chicken tenders. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add the chicken tenders to the hot skillet and cook for about 4 minutes on each side or until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the zoodles. Add 1/2 tablespoon butter to the skillet and melt; add zucchini noodles and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until just tender, stirring frequently. Remove the zucchini from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the cream sauce. Melt the remaining butter in the skillet and add the garlic; cook for 20 seconds or until fragrant. Whisk in heavy cream and bring to a boil; continue to cook for 2 minutes or until the sauce is reduced and slightly thickened. Taste the sauce for salt and pepper and adjust accordingly.
- Combine it all together. Return the chicken and zoodles to the skillet; cook for 1 minute or just until heated through. Remove from heat.
- Serve. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve the chicken lazone with the zucchini noodles or your favorite pasta.
