  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 18 minute

Ingredients

– 4 medium zucchinis
– 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
– 1 cup BBQ sauce (your choice of flavor)
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Optional: Chopped green onions or parsley for garnish


Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create your Sticky BBQ Chicken Zucchini Boats:

1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Zucchini: Cut the zucchinis in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, scoop out the center to create “boats” leaving about 1/4 inch of zucchini on the sides.
3. Season Zucchini: Brush the zucchini halves with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place them cut-side up on a baking sheet.
4. Mix Chicken and Sauce: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken with your BBQ sauce. Stir until well coated.
5. Fill Zucchini Boats: Spoon the BBQ chicken mixture into each zucchini boat, filling generously.
6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the top of each filled zucchini boat.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Garnish: Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a couple of minutes. Optionally, top with chopped green onions or parsley for a fresh touch.
9. Serve: Enjoy these delicious boats hot, straight from the oven!

With these straightforward steps, you’ll have a plate full of amazing Sticky BBQ Chicken Zucchini Boats in no time.
