  3. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on a grill over medium heat for 10-12 minutes per side.
  4. While the chicken is grilling, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to a large skillet, then add the zucchini noodles and saute 3-5 minutes.

  6. Once the chicken is grilled, slice it up and place on top of the zoodles.
  7. Spoon the bruschetta over the chicken and zoodles.



Recipe Notes

  • Omit the parmesan cheese in the bruschetta to make this recipe dairy-free, whole30 approved and paleo.
  • These zoodle bowls will stay good in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. They're great for meal prepping and can be eaten hot or cold.
