Baked Chicken Parmesan with Marinara Pasta
Tender chicken breast baked with a crispy herb crust and melted mozzarella, served over al dente whole wheat pasta tossed in a vibrant, savory marinara sauce.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup whole wheat spaghetti
0.5 cup marinara sauce
1 oz mozzarella cheese
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
2 tbsp whole wheat panko breadcrumbs
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the whole wheat panko, garlic powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Brush the chicken breast evenly with olive oil, then dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to ensure a thick crust.
Place the chicken on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
Top the chicken with the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses, then bake for another 5 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
While the chicken finishes, cook the spaghetti in boiling water until al dente, then drain and toss with the marinara sauce and baby spinach until the greens are wilted.
Slice the crispy chicken and serve it immediately over the warm, saucy pasta.
