INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the chicken breast on a lightly greased baking sheet. Pat dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a shallow dish, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with a pinch of salt and some freshly cracked pepper.
Drizzle the chicken with a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, then press each side of the chicken into the breadcrumb mixture to coat evenly.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the oven, spoon marinara sauce over the top, and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.
Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese is melted.
Garnish with freshly chopped basil before serving.
