Ingredients

  • 1 13.5 ounce can (400 ml) coconut milk or 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 large zucchini spiralized or julienne sliced into noodle shapes
  • 2 12.5 oz cans (350 g) chicken liquid drained, alternatively you can use precooked cubed turkey or rotisserie chicken
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup (100 g) mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 oz. (225 g) mushrooms optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F (175C)
  • Add coconut milk to a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Stirring occasionally, allow to come to a boil. You want to get the coconut milk to thicken to a cream-like consistency. If using heavy cream, skip the boiling step because the cream is already thick enough.
  • Add zucchini noodles and mushrooms to the skillet along with the cream and stir until they are well-coated. Add in remaining ingredients and stir. Top with additional cheese, if desired.
  • Bake in oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the zucchini and mushrooms are cooked to your liking.
