Healthy Crispy Chicken Parmesan with Roasted Broccoli
Savor a lean twist on a classic Italian dish with tender, baked chicken breast coated in a light whole wheat breadcrumb crust, topped with a modest layer of marinara sauce and melted part-skim mozzarella, served alongside perfectly roasted broccoli drizzled with olive oil and a sprinkle of Italian herbs.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 tablespoons Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 cup Broccoli
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the chicken breast on a clean cutting board; lightly pound it to ensure even thickness.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of Italian seasoning on both sides.
Sprinkle the whole wheat breadcrumbs over the chicken, pressing gently so they adhere well.
Place the breaded chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the chicken for about 20-25 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
In the meantime, toss the broccoli with olive oil and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning, then spread on a separate baking tray.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for approximately 15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Once the chicken is nearly done, remove it from the oven, spoon marinara sauce evenly over the top, and sprinkle with part-skim mozzarella.
Return the chicken to the oven for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Plate the crispy chicken parmesan alongside the roasted broccoli and serve immediately.
