Crispy Baked Chicken Parmesan with Fresh Herbs
Enjoy a light yet flavorful twist on the classic Chicken Parmesan. Tender chicken breast is lightly breaded with whole wheat breadcrumbs, baked to a crisp, and smothered in robust marinara sauce, part-skim mozzarella, and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, all elevated with fresh basil and parsley for a burst of herbaceous freshness.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 ounce Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 Tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 Egg White
2 Tablespoons Fresh Basil
2 Tablespoons Fresh Parsley
1/2 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lightly spraying it with olive oil.
In a shallow bowl, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs, garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
In another bowl, whisk the egg white to use as a binding agent.
Dip the chicken breast first into the egg white, then coat it evenly with the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the top with olive oil to enhance crispiness.
Bake the chicken in the oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon marinara sauce generously over the top.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella and grated Parmesan evenly over the sauce.
Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with chopped fresh basil and parsley before serving.
