Crispy Chicken Parmesan with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a lighter twist on a classic Italian favorite: a tender, lightly breaded chicken breast topped with marinara and a sprinkle of Parmesan, paired with perfectly roasted asparagus. This dish delivers satisfying crunch and vibrant flavors without weighing you down!
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
2 tablespoons Whole Wheat Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
6 spears Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness, then season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Beat the egg white in a shallow bowl. In another plate, mix the whole wheat panko breadcrumbs with the grated Parmesan cheese.
Dip the chicken breast in the egg white, then coat it evenly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with a bit of olive oil. Sear the chicken breast for about 2 minutes on each side until lightly golden.
Place the seared chicken in an oven-safe dish, spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the top, and transfer to the oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
While the chicken bakes, trim the asparagus ends and toss them with 1 teaspoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until tender.
Plate the chicken and top with any remaining sauce from the dish, then serve with the roasted asparagus on the side.
