INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 Egg White
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
4 sprigs Fresh Basil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
In another bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy.
Dip the chicken breast in the egg white, then coat thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
Remove the tray, spoon marinara sauce over the chicken, and sprinkle grated Parmesan on top.
Return the chicken to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese melts and lightly browns.
Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
