Enjoy this healthier twist on the classic Chicken Parmesan where tender, juicy chicken breast is coated in seasoned whole wheat breadcrumbs and crisped to perfection in the oven, then topped with a tangy marinara sauce, a sprinkle of rich Parmesan cheese, and a burst of fresh basil. A satisfying, balanced dish for any meal of the day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese
2 Tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil.
Pound the chicken breast to even thickness for uniform baking.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then dredge it lightly in whole wheat breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 20-25 minutes until fully cooked and crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon a layer of marinara sauce over each piece.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top of the sauce, then return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
Garnish with freshly chopped basil before serving.
