INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Whole-Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly pound the chicken breast to an even thickness. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Place the whole-wheat breadcrumbs on a shallow plate. Drizzle olive oil over the breadcrumbs and gently toss to combine for extra crispness.
Coat the chicken breast evenly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently so it adheres well.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil and parsley before serving.
