Baked Chicken Parmesan with Marinara
Oven-baked chicken breast coated in a crispy panko-parmesan crust, topped with zesty marinara and melted mozzarella for a satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
3.5 oz chicken breast
0.25 cup whole wheat panko breadcrumbs
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 large egg
0.5 cup marinara sauce
1 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese
0.5 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1.5 cup zucchini noodles
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet with the extra virgin olive oil.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth; in a separate shallow bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then dredge in the panko mixture, pressing firmly to ensure a thick, even coating on all sides.
Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until the exterior is golden-brown and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the pan from the oven, spoon the marinara sauce over the center of the chicken, and top with the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Return the pan to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
While the chicken rests, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a pan for 2 minutes until just tender, then serve the crispy chicken directly on top.
