INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/8 cup Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1 medium Zucchini
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness and season both sides with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Lightly coat the chicken breast with whole wheat breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
In a skillet over medium heat, lightly brown the chicken on both sides until it becomes crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Transfer the chicken onto a baking dish. Spoon a thin layer of tomato sauce over each piece and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top.
Cut the zucchini into rounds or half-moons, toss with olive oil, salt, and a pinch of Italian seasoning, and place on a baking sheet.
Bake the chicken and zucchini in the preheated oven. Roast the zucchini for about 15-20 minutes until tender, and bake the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (approximately 15 minutes).
Serve the crispy chicken alongside the roasted zucchini and enjoy!
