INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast lightly to an even thickness. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Set up a dipping station: whisk the egg in a shallow bowl, and in another shallow dish, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the Parmesan cheese.
Dip the chicken breast first into the egg, then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture.
Place the breaded chicken on the baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil lightly over the top to help achieve a crispy texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the coating is crispy.
Warm the marinara sauce slightly on the stovetop or in the microwave. Spoon the sauce evenly over the baked chicken.
Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
