Crispy Baked Chicken Parmesan with Fresh Herbs
Savor a crisp, lean twist on the classic Chicken Parmesan. Tender chicken breast is lightly coated in egg white and panko breadcrumbs, then baked to a golden finish. Topped with a hint of grated Parmesan and a delicate layer of marinara, it’s finished off with a burst of freshly chopped basil for a vibrant, herbaceous touch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray with cooking spray.
Pound the chicken breast lightly to an even thickness if desired for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, add the egg white and whisk lightly.
Dip the chicken breast into the egg white, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
Dredge the chicken in panko breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere the crumbs to the surface.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray or drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the chicken to help with crisping during baking.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the coating is golden and crisp.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the marinara sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top and return the chicken to the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes until the cheese is slightly melted.
Garnish with freshly chopped basil before serving.
