INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth.
In another bowl, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs with dried oregano and a pinch of salt.
Dip the chicken breast in the egg wash, then coat evenly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the breaded chicken breast on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon marinara sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese melts.
Garnish with fresh basil before serving.
