Spicy Baked Chicken Parmesan
Oven-baked chicken breast coated in a spicy, crispy herb crust, finished with zesty marinara and melted mozzarella over a bed of fluffy quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1 large egg
3 tbsp whole wheat panko breadcrumbs
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.5 tsp red pepper flakes
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 cup marinara sauce
0.25 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a baking sheet with the olive oil.
Place the chicken breast between two sheets of parchment paper and pound to an even half-inch thickness.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg until smooth.
In a second shallow bowl, combine the panko, parmesan, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Dip the chicken into the egg wash, then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated on both sides.
Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven, spoon the marinara sauce over the chicken, and top with the mozzarella cheese.
Return to the oven for 5 more minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the chicken is cooked through.
Serve the chicken over the warm quinoa and garnish with freshly chopped basil.
