INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast gently to ensure an even thickness for uniform baking.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth. In another bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Dip the chicken breast into the egg, then coat evenly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
Place the breaded chicken onto the prepared baking sheet and lightly brush with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy and golden.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan or microwave. Once the chicken is almost done, spoon a layer of marinara sauce over the top and return to the oven for an additional 3-4 minutes to meld the flavors.
Garnish with freshly chopped basil and parsley before serving.
