INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 Egg
1/2 cup Fresh Marinara Sauce
1 cup Steamed Broccoli
Spices: Garlic Powder, Salt, Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the chicken breast into strips of even thickness.
Set up a breading station with two bowls. In the first bowl, lightly beat the egg. In the second bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip each chicken strip into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat evenly with the breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray or drizzle with a small amount of olive oil if desired for extra crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
While the chicken bakes, gently heat the fresh marinara sauce in a small pot over medium heat.
Steam the broccoli until tender, about 5-6 minutes, ensuring it retains its bright color and nutrients.
Plate the crispy Parmesan chicken strips alongside a serving of steamed broccoli and drizzle the marinara sauce on top or serve on the side for dipping.
