INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 Large Egg
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tbsp Fresh Basil (chopped)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Pound the chicken breast gently to an even thickness for uniform cooking. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth. In another shallow dish, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs with chopped basil and parsley.
Dip the chicken in the egg wash, then coat thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
Remove from the oven and spoon marinara sauce over the top. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Return to the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes until the sauce is warmed and the cheese has slightly melted.
Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately.
