Crispy Baked Chicken Parmesan with Fresh Herbs
Enjoy a light yet flavorful twist on a classic Italian favorite. Tender chicken breast is lightly breaded with whole wheat breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, and fresh herbs, then baked to a perfect crisp. Topped with a modest layer of tangy marinara and melted part-skim mozzarella, this dish brings comforting flavors without overloading on calories.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 cup Part-skim Mozzarella Cheese
2 tbsp Fresh Basil (chopped)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped fresh basil, and parsley.
Pat the chicken breast dry and lightly coat it with a thin layer of marinara sauce.
Dredge the chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating to both sides.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Top the chicken with the remaining marinara sauce spread evenly.
Sprinkle part-skim mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F) and the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
