INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Panko
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1 cup Green Beans
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
Salt & Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of dried Italian herbs.
Coat the chicken on both sides with whole wheat panko, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the chicken on the baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp.
About 5 minutes before the chicken is done, spoon the tomato sauce over the chicken and sprinkle low-fat mozzarella cheese on top, returning it to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Meanwhile, trim the ends of the green beans and steam or blanch them until just tender, about 3-4 minutes.
In a small pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat, add the minced garlic, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Toss the cooked green beans in the garlicky oil and season with salt and pepper.
Plate the crispy chicken parmesan alongside the garlicky green beans and enjoy a balanced, flavorful meal.
