If your family is growing a garden, chances are it may be filled with a load of green zucchinis and a need for new ideas to use them up. The house is also hot, so you probably don’t want to heat it up by baking another loaf of zucchini bread. Ragú Homestyle provided this recipe for a simple summer Chicken Parmesan with Zucchini Noodles that utilizes the grill and their latest Homestyle pasta sauces. You can view a tutorial video of this recipe below or from the Honeysuckle blog at ragu.com.

Recipe Tip: Always look for thinly sliced chicken breast when making Grilled Chicken Parmesan. The thin chicken breast is more tender and cooks faster and evenly. Ask the butcher to slice in half if possible.
