Stuffed Zucchini Boats are a keto-friendly and fun recipe that we recommend for when you want to spice up your meals with a quick appetizer. Filled with chicken, onions, cheese, and an assortment of spices, the otherwise plain zucchini is transformed into a delicious savory platter.
Ingredients
- 3 zucchinis
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 onion
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp coriander
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F or 200°C
