INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
3 Fresh Basil Leaves
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white. In another bowl, place the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Dip the chicken breast first in the egg white, then coat evenly with breadcrumbs.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until cooked through and lightly golden.
Remove the chicken from the oven. Spoon marinara sauce evenly over the chicken, then sprinkle with shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
