Healthy Crispy Chicken Parmesan
Enjoy a lighter take on the classic Chicken Parmesan with a crispy, oven-baked chicken breast coated in whole wheat breadcrumbs, layered with tangy tomato sauce and melted part-skim mozzarella. Fresh basil and a touch of seasoning bring vibrant flavor to a dish that’s both hearty and health-conscious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
4 sprigs Fresh Basil
3 sprays Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound the chicken breast to ensure even thickness for cooking.
In a shallow bowl, beat the egg with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In another shallow dish, place the whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Dip the chicken breast first in the egg wash, then coat it evenly with the breadcrumbs.
Lightly spray the chicken with olive oil on both sides to promote crispness.
Place the chicken on the baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes until cooked through and the coating is crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce.
Return the chicken to the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve immediately.
