INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
1 ounce Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil and Parsley
Garlic Powder, Salt, and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking tray with olive oil.
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness and season both sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Lightly brush the chicken with olive oil, then coat evenly with whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and the coating is crisp.
Remove from the oven and spoon a layer of marinara sauce on top of the chicken. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with freshly chopped basil and parsley before serving.
