Healthy Crispy Chicken Parmesan
Enjoy a lighter take on a classic Italian favorite with crispy baked chicken, a tangy marinara sauce, and melted part-skim mozzarella. This dish features a protein-packed chicken breast coated in whole wheat breadcrumbs and egg whites, delivering crunch without the deep-fried calories.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
3 sprays Olive Oil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a shallow bowl, lightly whisk the egg white. In a separate shallow dish, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip the chicken breast first in the egg white, making sure it's fully coated, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the coated chicken breast on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the top with olive oil spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon marinara sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese over the sauce and return the chicken to the oven for another 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the dish to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your healthy, crispy chicken parmesan!
