Prepare the chicken: in a microwave safe large deep dish, combine chicken with coconut aminos, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate chicken for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Transfer the chicken to a medium shallow dish or pie plate (6-cup capacity)
Step 3
Cover with Duo Cover and cook for 10 minutes at Power Level 10. Sprinkle the chicken with parmesan and microwave for another 3 minutes. Remove the chicken and Duo Cover from the microwave. Check the chicken with a meat thermometer — it should be 165ºF, otherwise cook for another 30 seconds.
