INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 large Egg
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tsp Dried Oregano
2 sprays Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly spray a baking dish with olive oil cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg to create an egg wash.
In another bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, dried oregano, and a bit of freshly chopped basil.
Dip the chicken breast in the egg wash, then coat it evenly with the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the breaded chicken breast in the prepared baking dish and lightly spray the top with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese over the sauce and add the remaining fresh basil on top.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let it cool slightly before serving.
