Chicken & Zucchini Poppers

This is a squeaky clean recipe that is Gluten free and Whole30 friendly. Do not fear the zucchini because you won't even taste it! 


Ingredients:
1 lb Ground Chicken Breast
1 cup Grated Zucchini
3 Green Onions, sliced
3-4 Tbsp Basil, minced
1-2 Cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil Cooking Spray 

Directions:
Mix chicken with zucchini, green onions, basil, garlic, salt,  and pepper. Mixture will be quite wet.

Spray medium fry pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Use a small scoop or heaping tablespoon to scoop mixture into pan. Do not overcrowd pan. Cook 4-5 minutes each side until golden brown and centers are cooked through. 

Serve with marinara for dipping. If you want more of a kick, swap cilantro for basil and serve with an avocado based condiment.
