  • Cooking Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 375℉ and lightly oil a 9×13" baking dish to prevent sticking.
  • In a bowl, mix together the mozzarella cheese, cottage cheese, scallions, eggs, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Set this mixture aside.
  • In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the zucchini and mushrooms until they're tender.
  • Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown and fully cooked.
  • Drain any excess liquid from the sautéed mixture and then combine it with the cheese mixture. Verify everything is well mixed.
  • Transfer the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Optionally, sprinkle parmesan cheese on top for a crispy finish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly. This dish is not only flavorful but also low in carbs, making it a healthy choice for a satisfying meal.
  • For best results, consider cooking the chicken and zucchini in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can lead to uneven cooking.
  • Additionally, letting the casserole sit for a few minutes after baking can help it set and make serving easier. Enjoy your healthy and delicious meal!
