INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Whole-Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
2 sprays Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly oil a baking sheet with olive oil spray.
Place the chicken breast on a cutting board and, if necessary, pound it to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, combine the whole-wheat breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, and parsley.
Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and lightly coat each piece with a spray of olive oil.
Dredge the chicken in the breadcrumb and herb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
In the final minutes of baking, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan.
Remove the chicken from the oven, spoon over the warmed marinara sauce, and garnish with a few extra fresh herbs if desired before serving.
