INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1 large Egg (50g)
0.33 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (30g)
0.33 cup Marinara Sauce (80g)
0.25 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a meat mallet, gently pound the chicken breast to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
Set up a dredging station: in one shallow bowl, beat the egg; in another, place the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Dip the chicken into the egg, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs on both sides.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Optionally, spray lightly with cooking spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is nearly cooked through and the coating is crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven, spoon an even layer of marinara sauce over the top, and sprinkle with low-fat mozzarella cheese.
Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese melts and begins to brown slightly.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your healthy, crispy chicken parmesan!
