BBQ Chicken Zucchini Boats

Prep Time | 10 mins Cook time | 20 mins Total time | 30 mins

INGREDIENTS

• 3 zucchini, halved (seeds removed)

• 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded

• ½ cup BBQ sauce (I used Stubbs Brand)

• ⅓ cup shredded mexican cheese

• 1 avocado, sliced

• ½ cup halved cherry tomatoes

• ¼ cup diced green onions

• 3 tablespoons of ranch dressing to drizzle

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Scoop the seeds out of the zucchini halves, leaving a little about a ½" hole carved out of the center (similar to a boat). Place the zucchini flesh side up in a 9x13 casserole dish.

3. Add shredded chicken and BBQ sauce to a small bowl. Toss to coat all the chicken with BBQ sauce.

4. Fill the zucchini boats with the BBQ chicken mixture. (about ¼-1/3 cup for each zucchini boat)

5. Sprinkle with mexican cheese on top.

6. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes. (NOTE: I like my zucchini with a bite, if you would like yours more tender bake for an additional 5-10 minutes for desired tenderness)

7. Remove from oven.

8. Garnish with avocado, tomatoes, green onion, and a drizzle of ranch dressing. Serve.
