INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
Olive Oil Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast gently to even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil.
Lightly beat the egg white in another small bowl. Dip the chicken breast first into the egg white, coating it evenly.
Then, dredge the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure a good layer adheres.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the top with olive oil spray for extra crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
About 5 minutes before the end of baking, spoon marinara sauce over the chicken to warm it slightly without making the coating soggy.
Remove from oven, garnish with extra fresh basil if desired, and serve hot.
