INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
2 tbsp Panko Breadcrumbs
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
For the chicken, lightly season the 3 oz chicken breast with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon of mixed dried herbs. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, ensuring it's evenly coated. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the low-fat cottage cheese and 2 tablespoons of panko breadcrumbs. Add a pinch of salt and pepper if desired. This mixture will form a crispy topping.
Prepare the broccoli by tossing 1 cup of broccoli florets in 1 teaspoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread them out on a separate baking tray.
Place both the chicken and the broccoli in the oven. Roast the broccoli for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred. Bake the chicken for around 18-20 minutes until fully cooked through.
Once the chicken is cooked, top it with the cottage cheese and panko mixture. Return the chicken to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to allow the topping to crisp up.
Remove all items from the oven. Plate the crispy baked cottage cheese-topped chicken alongside the roasted broccoli. Serve immediately and enjoy the balance of textures and flavors.
