Recipe Notes

*Be sure to drain as much of the water from the jar of roasted red peppers as you can. The zucchini will naturally provide water when it’s cooked.Using frozen roasted red peppers may add additional water as well. Allow them to thaw and pat dry.

*Time will be dependent on how thickly cut your chicken breast is.

*If you cook zucchini noodles too long, they will be mushy.
