    Betty's Chicken and Zucchini Sketti with sauce

    4.3oz cooked boneless skinless chicken breast (cubed and sauteed in 2tbsp olive oil)
    2 cups zucchini "noodles"
    1/2 cup raw sliced mushrooms
    1/3 cup yellow onion, chopped
    2 tsp garlic powder
    1 tsp ground oregano
    1/4 cup Classico Tomato and Basil Spaghetti sauce
    1 tbsp Kraft 100% grated parmesan

    1. After sauteing the chicken breast cubes in the olive oil, remove from pan and set aside.
    2. Using a veggie spiralizer, create 2 cups of zucchini "noodles" or slice very thin zucchini strips by hand.
    3. Saute the mushrooms and onions in the same pan where the chicken was cooked. Remove and set aside with the chicken cubes.
    4. Pour spaghetti sauce into small pot and heat on low.
    5. Add zucchini "noodles" to the same pan. Add garlic powder and oregano as you saute the "noodles" until done. Be careful not to cook too long. We want limp noodle consistency...not brown and crispy.
