INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Panko Bread Crumbs
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Shredded Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
2 tbsp Fresh Basil (chopped)
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast lightly to even thickness. Pat dry using paper towels.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy.
In another bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs with the chopped fresh basil and parsley.
Dip the chicken breast first in the egg white, then coat it evenly with the herb-infused panko mixture.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 18-20 minutes until the chicken is almost cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the marinara sauce evenly on top.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes, then garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired before serving.
