Baked Chicken Parmesan is a lighter version of the classic. I skip out on the noodles to avoid all those extra carbs and not use a ton of marinara sauce on top. Instead of frying the chicken you bake it in the oven. Have a side of steamed broccoli or green beans as aside. I am a fan of any type of breaded chicken for dinner now. Now that I know how to get the bread crumbs to stick. I’ve tried other recipes before and the bread crumbs just wouldn’t stick to the chicken. It also helps to use a cooling rack on top of your pan while the chicken cooks in the oven to help both of the sides of chicken to turn brown. Also, bake at a high temp like around 400 to 450 degrees to help the breadcrumbs turn brown.

Ingredients

4 Fresh Mozzarella Slices
Basil for garnish
4 tablespoons Marinara Sauce
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
2 tablespoons Freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 Eggs
3/4 cup Pnko bread
2 Boneless skinless chicken breasts, split in half

Method

01

Preheat Oven to 450 ºF.
02

Split each chicken breast in half. In a bowl combine the bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese.
03

Dip the chicken into the eggs and then into the bread crumb mixture and lay on a sheet pan with a cooling rack.
04

Repeat this process 4 times.
05

Spray the chicken with cooking spray, and cook the chicken at 450 ºF for 20 minutes. Spoon 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce on each piece of chicken and some cheese and place the chicken back into the pan until the cheese is melted. Garnish with freshly chopped basil.
