Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup almond flour
• 1 egg
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 lettuce leaves
• 1 tomato, sliced
• 1 cup cooked chicken breast, sliced
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Grate the zucchinis using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much water as possible.

Step 3

In a bowl, mix together the shredded zucchini, cheddar cheese, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 4

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a thin, round shape like a sandwich ‘bread’—roughly 4 inches in diameter—onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Brush the top of each zucchini patty lightly with olive oil to aid in browning.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through for even browning.

Step 7

Remove the zucchini patties from the oven and let them cool slightly.

Step 8

Once cooled, assemble the sandwiches by spreading 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on two of the zucchini patties.

Step 9

Layer the mayonnaise-covered patty with lettuce leaves, sliced tomato, and sliced cooked chicken breast.

Step 10

Top each with the remaining zucchini patties to complete the sandwiches.

Step 11

Serve immediately while the zucchini patties are warm and crispy.
