Crispy Chicken Parmesan with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a twist on the classic Chicken Parmesan with a crispy, lightly breaded chicken breast topped with tangy tomato sauce and melted mozzarella, paired with tender roasted asparagus drizzled with olive oil. A satisfying meal that's both flavorful and balanced!
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
2 tbsp Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup shredded Part-skim Mozzarella Cheese
6 Asparagus Spears
Italian Seasoning, Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the chicken breast with Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder on both sides.
Lightly coat the chicken breast with the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently so they adhere. For extra crispiness, you can lightly spray a bit of olive oil over the top.
Place the breaded chicken on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and place them on another baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tsp olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for approximately 10-12 minutes until tender but still crisp.
In the last 5 minutes of the chicken's baking time, remove the tray, spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the chicken, and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Return to the oven until the cheese melts.
Remove both trays from the oven, plate the chicken and asparagus together, and serve immediately.
