INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 large Egg White
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast slightly to ensure an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow dish, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Lightly whisk the egg white in a small bowl.
Dip each chicken breast first into the egg white, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it evenly with the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat while the chicken bakes.
Once cooked, spoon a modest amount of marinara sauce over the chicken and garnish with fresh basil.
Serve immediately and enjoy this light, flavorful take on a classic dish.
