Savor the crunchy, golden-baked chicken topped with tangy marinara and melted Parmesan, paired with tender roasted asparagus. This dish offers a delightful medley of textures and flavors, making it a wholesome yet flavorful meal for lunch or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 oz Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce
1 bunch Asparagus (approx 6-8 spears)
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Prepare the chicken breast by patting it dry. Brush lightly with the egg white to help the breadcrumbs adhere.
In a shallow bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. Dredge the chicken in the mixture until evenly coated.
Place the coated chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the marinara sauce over the top. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to warm the sauce and allow the cheese to meld.
Meanwhile, trim the woody ends of the asparagus. Toss them lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them out on another baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Plate the chicken with a side of roasted asparagus, and serve immediately.
