Skinny Chicken Parm Ingredients, from The SkinnyTaste Cookbook

Skinny Chicken Parm

Cooking spray

• 2-3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• Salt, to taste
• 1-2 cups of Panko or whole wheat breadcrumbs (I used Panko)
• 3 tablespoons grated parmesan
• 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
• 1 jar of tomato marinara sauce (make sure it’s all natural, 21 Day Fixers)
• Shredded mozzarella cheese

1. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Spray a large baking sheet or Pyrex dish with cooking spray. Slice your chicken breasts in half horizontally, to make 4-6 thin cutlets. Season with salt.
2. In a bowl, place the breadcrumbs and parmesan. Stir together to combine. Brush the EVOO on both sides of each chicken breast, then coat in the breadcrumbs dish. Place on your baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes.
3. Once golden, turn the chicken breasts over and cook the other side for about 6-8 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, start heating up your marinara sauce until warm.
4. When the chicken is done in the oven, place them right in the marinara sauce in your skillet. Most of the chicken’s top surface should still be visible, so sprinkle this with your cheese. Cover the skillet and cook until your cheese melts, or 5 minutes. SERVE!

Healthy Garlic Bread Ingredients

• 1-2 whole wheat sandwich thins
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Crushed garlic OR garlic powder

1. Divide your sandwich thins, so you have a top and bottom. Place in the over for a few minutes, until warm.
2. Once warm, take out and drizzle EVOO on top, followed by garlic or garlic powder to taste. Place back in the over for a few more minutes just to warm up the new toppings. Once done, cut into strips for the family.

21 Day Fix Tally: I counted one serving of my chicken parm and garlic bread as: 1 ½ red (chicken), 1 purple (tomato sauce), 1 blue (cheese), 1 yellow (panko and bread), 2 tsp (olive oil). Felt like a cheat meal! :)
