Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 to 1.5 lb total)
- 1 cup low-carb marinara sauce (no-sugar-added varieties)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (whole-milk mozzarella)

- 2 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions

- Pat chicken breasts dry and season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5–7 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Reduce heat to low, spoon about 1/4 cup marinara over each breast, and sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan.

- Let rest for 3–5 minutes before serving.
Notes
For different flavors, try using diced fresh tomatoes instead of low-carb sauce or swapping the mozzarella for provolone.
