INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/3 cup Marinara Sauce
1 cup Broccoli
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil (spray)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the chicken breast on a lightly greased baking sheet. Pat dry and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Dredge the chicken breast in whole wheat breadcrumbs, pressing firmly so the crumbs adhere. For extra crispiness, lightly spray the top with olive oil.
Bake the chicken in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, toss the broccoli florets with a little olive oil spray, salt, and pepper. Spread onto a separate baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 15-18 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
During the last 5 minutes of baking the chicken, remove it and spoon the marinara sauce evenly over the top. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the sauce and return to the oven for the remaining time until the cheese is slightly melted.
Serve the crispy chicken Parmesan alongside the roasted broccoli for a nutritious and balanced meal.
