- 1 tsp. olive oil
- ½ medium onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 1 cup mushrooms
- 4 basil finely chopped
- 3 cups zucchini
- 2 Tbsp. pesto sauce
- 8 oz chicken breasts
Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
Add onion; cook, stirring frequently, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent.
Add garlic; cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute.
Add mushrooms and basil; cook, stirring frequently, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until mushrooms release liquid. Set aside.
Using a vegetable peeler, cut each zucchini into lengthwise strips about ⅛ inch thick. Turn zucchini slightly after cutting each strip to work evenly around the outside, stopping when you hit the seeds at the core. Discard cores. Cut slices lengthwise into ½- inch ribbons. Set aside.
Add zucchini to onion mixture; cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, for 2 to 4 minutes, or until heated through.
Add pesto; mix well.
Evenly divide zucchini mixture between two serving plates; evenly top with chicken.
