Chicken Parmesan

Chicken Parmesan

Serves 4

Tip: Many chicken Parmesan recipes are drowning in cheese — and calories. This version uses a solid sprinkle.

1. Add 1 cup panko bread crumbs.
2. Add 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. (Grated Parmesan works better than the shredded style shown in the video.)
3. Add 2 teaspoons dry basil.
4. Add 1 teaspoon garlic powder.
5. Add 2 teaspoons dry oregano.
6. Add 1 teaspoon onion powder.
7. Pound out 4 chicken breasts to 1/4-inch thickness.
8. Place 2 egg whites in medium bowl.
9. Dip each chicken breast into egg whites.
10. Dredge in breading mixture.
11. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 375 F.
12. Add 2 cups reduced-sodium marinara sauce.
13. Add 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese.
