INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 tbsp Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Low-Sugar Marinara Sauce
1 cup Spaghetti Squash
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Basil & Parsley)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white. In another plate, place the whole wheat breadcrumbs mixed with 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese.
Dip the chicken breast first into the egg white, then coat evenly with the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the breaded chicken on the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and crispy.
Meanwhile, cut the spaghetti squash in half, scoop out the seeds, and place cut-side down in a microwave-safe dish with a splash of water. Microwave for 8-10 minutes until tender, or roast in the oven if preferred.
Using a fork, gently scrape the flesh of the spaghetti squash to create noodle-like strands.
In a small pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, then mix in the spaghetti squash along with the remaining Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs.
Heat the marinara sauce gently on the stove or in the microwave.
To assemble, place the garlic-herb spaghetti squash on a plate, slice the crispy chicken breast and top with a drizzle of marinara sauce. Enjoy your delicious, light, and nutritious meal.
