Notes
I used Rao's Alfredo for this recipe, the nutrition is based on that nutritional information.
Net carbs are 2.7 g per zucchini boat
Air Fryer Instructions:
- First, hollow your zucchini into the boat shape as described above. Meanwhile, preheat your air fryer to 390°F. Then place your zucchini in the air fryer and cook until it begins to blister (about 3-5 minutes).
- While that's cooking, combine your chicken, Alfredo sauce and mozzarella. Remove your zucchini from the air fryer and fill with the chicken mixture. Top with additional mozzarella.
- Place back into the air fryer and cook until the cheese is melted and the inside is warm (about 4 minutes). Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to do this in batches.
