INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz Chicken breast

0.25 cup Panko breadcrumbs

2 tbsp Grated Parmesan cheese

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

0.25 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 large Egg

0.5 cup Marinara sauce

0.75 oz Shredded mozzarella cheese

1.5 cup Zucchini noodles

1 tsp Olive oil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Place the chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even half-inch thickness using a meat mallet.

• 3

  In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth; in a second shallow bowl, combine the panko, one tablespoon of parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

• 4

  Dip the chicken into the egg wash to coat, then press it firmly into the panko mixture until the surface is completely covered.

• 5

  Transfer the breaded chicken to the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the crust is golden and the chicken is cooked through.

• 6

  Remove from the oven, spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken, and top with the mozzarella and the remaining tablespoon of parmesan.

• 7

  Set the oven to broil and place the chicken back inside for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

• 8

  While the chicken rests, lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a pan over medium heat for 2 minutes, then serve the chicken parmesan directly on top.
