INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1/4 cup Whole-Wheat Breadcrumbs (28g)
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce (62g)
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (4.5g)
2 tbsp Fresh Basil Leaves (4g)
1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness for uniform cooking. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
Lightly brush the chicken with olive oil, then press it into the whole-wheat breadcrumbs ensuring a thin, even coating.
Place the breadcrumb-coated chicken on the baking sheet. Spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the top of the chicken.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella evenly over the tomato sauce.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and top with fresh basil leaves before serving.
