INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast (142g)
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (30g)
1/8 cup Parmesan Cheese (10g)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (4.5g)
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil & Parsley
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry and lightly coat with olive oil.
In a shallow dish, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with grated Parmesan cheese, chopped fresh basil and parsley, and minced garlic.
Dredge the chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere evenly.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray or drizzle a bit more olive oil on top for extra crispiness.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
Once the chicken is done, spoon a generous amount of marinara sauce over the top, garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
