Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups zucchini sliced (about 2 medium)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt plus more for sprinkling on chicken
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast cut into cubes
- 1/4 cup prepared pesto sauce

- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 350°F and spray an 8x8 inch pan with cooking spray.
- Spread the zucchini onto a layer of paper towel and sprinkle with salt. Let stand 10 minutes.

- Place the chicken into the prepared pan, sprinkle with salt and spread the pesto on top.
- Sprinkle the onions over the chicken and then layer the zucchini on top.
