INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce (62g)
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (15g)
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella (28g)
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast lightly to an even thickness. Pat dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Lightly brush the chicken with olive oil.
Mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the chopped fresh basil and parsley.
Coat the chicken breast evenly with the breadcrumb-herb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the breadcrumbs have turned crisp.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese on top of the tomato sauce.
Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired, then serve hot.
