Prep 15 min · Cook 20 min

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Bring water to a boil in a pot for 10 minutes. Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Whisk the egg white in a shallow bowl. In another bowl, mix the panko and parmesan. Dip the chicken into the egg white, then press into the panko mixture to coat both sides.
Mist an oven-safe skillet with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 3 minutes, flip, and top with marinara and mozzarella. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and the chicken is cooked through. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, cook the spaghetti in the boiling water for 9 to 10 minutes until tender. Drain the pasta.
Place the spaghetti on the plate and top with the chicken parmesan. Garnish with fresh basil.
