Who doesn’t love Italian food seriously? All those carbs and cheeses sooo delicious but not so great for swimsuit season. So I have decided to recreate one of my favorite dishes that is low in carbs and make it as skinny as possible to fill my Italian craving.
Chicken Parmesan
Prep time: 10 – 12 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
1 egg
¼ cup bread crumbs
1 cup tomato sauce (look for low sodium)
½ cup shredded Low Fat Mozzarella cheese
Parmesan Cheese
1 Chicken breast
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Crack the egg in a bowl removing the shell. Dip the chicken breast in the egg covering it almost completely. Then in a separate bowl add the breadcrumbs and dip the chicken into that bowl to cover the breast with breadcrumbs.
- In a small baking dish place breaded chicken. Add the tomato sauce over the chicken so it is completely covered. Then spread the cheese over the sauce adding as much or as little as you would like. Lastly top it off by sprinkling a little Parmesan cheese on it.
- Place in the over for about 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and cheese is melted.
BOOM DONE!
This is a very easy recipe that feels like a little taste of home. As you can see by the pictures we added some steamed broccoli but feel free to add any vegetable you prefer.
