Grilled chicken fillet with courgette noodles is a light and colourful dinner that feels both hearty and refined. The juicy, seasoned chicken rests on a bed of crispy courgette strands, perfumed with garlic and Italian herbs. A fresh alternative to pasta that fits seamlessly into a high-protein diet.

In Phase 2, you can gradually expand your menu whilst keeping the focus on proteins and satiety, and this dish sits nicely with that. The chicken fillet provides lean, high-quality proteins that maintain your muscles, whilst the courgette takes the place of carbohydrate-rich pasta with fibre and moisture. So you eat a complete, satisfying meal that digests easily and keeps your blood sugar in balance, entirely in keeping with protein diet thinking.

Lovely with a splash of fresh lemon over the courgette and some grated Parmesan for a savoury, Mediterranean touch.

Zo maak je het

  1. Slice the courgette with a vegetable peeler or spiralizer into ribbons.
  2. Season the chicken breast and grill or pan-fry until cooked through.
  3. In a separate pan, briefly fry the garlic in olive oil.
  4. Add the courgette and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until just tender.
  5. Slice the chicken, lay it on the courgette and season to taste.

Bewaren

Keep chicken and courgette separately in the fridge for a maximum of 2 days and briefly reheat the chicken. The courgette stays tastiest when just tender and not overcooked.

Variatietips

Swap the chicken for prawns or turkey breast one time, or add cherry tomatoes for extra freshness. A pinch of chilli flakes gives the noodles some kick.
