Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 425º F.
Cut the top (with the stem) off each zucchini. Slice zucchini in half lengthwise to create2 boats from each zucchini.
Use a spoon to gently scoop out the center of each. I do a shallow scoop because I hate to waste the zucchini.
Lay the zucchini boats side by side in a baking dish. {A baking sheet also works well). Drizzle olive oil over top. Use your fingers to spread the oil evenly over the tops of each boat. Salt and pepper.
Combine shredded chicken and salsa in a bowl. Stir. Scoop the chicken and salsa mixture down the center of the boats.
Place finished boats in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. (25 minutes is perfect for my oven. If you're using large zucchinis, you may need to go for 30 minutes. Just check it at 25 minutes.)
Remove from oven and top with fresh chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
