BLACKENED CHICKEN WITH ZUCCHINI "NOODLES" & CREAM
Perfect for two (or for one with delicious lunch leftovers) This gem stems from one of the first recipes I ever learned to make: a sour cream based cream sauce with chopped zucchini, served over pasta. In an attempt to make it lighter, this is what happened...

Steps:
- Sprinkle chicken liberally with all the seasoning, using paprika the most. Cayenne pepper is to your liking.
- Heat grill, or grill pan, to medium high heat.
- Grill chicken breast until done, about 5 minutes per side.

- Add Parmesan cheese to taste.
- Portion zucchini in the sauce into two low bowls and topped with sliced blackened chicken.
- Enjoy :).

Steps:
- Cook the penne, then drain and set aside.
- Place olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and add chicken; cook until cooked through, turning chicken halfway through. Remove from pan and slice into bite-sized pieces. Return chicken pieces to pan with mushrooms, tomatoes, green onions and minced garlic. Saute together while tossing occasionally for 2 minutes. Add heavy cream, Parmesan, Creole seasoning and noodles to chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring frequently to heat noodles and melt cheese. Taste and add more Creole seasoning until it's just right. If you are brave enough to toss all the ingredients in the pan, do it! We love to catch the flame just right and it creates a wonderful show for the guests to watch.
