INGREDIENTS
1 piece Chicken Breast (approx 140g)
1 large Egg White (approx 33g)
0.33 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (approx 30g)
1 tablespoon Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese (approx 5g)
0.25 cup Marinara Sauce (approx 62g)
Fresh Basil sprigs
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast gently to even thickness for consistent cooking.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy.
In a separate bowl, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Dip the chicken breast first in the egg white, then press it into the breadcrumb mixture ensuring an even coating on both sides.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan or microwave until slightly heated.
Plate the baked chicken, spoon a quarter cup of marinara sauce on top, and garnish with fresh basil sprigs.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, crispy Chicken Parmesan.
