For the Chicken Parmesan:

- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs

- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

For the Zucchini Pasta:

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a shallow dish, mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Dip each chicken breast in the beaten egg, then coat in the breadcrumb mixture.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown.

While the chicken is baking, prepare the zucchini pasta. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spiralized zucchini and cook for 2-3 minutes, until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
To serve, divide the zucchini pasta among four plates and top each serving with a chicken breast. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley, if desired.
