- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large egg whites, beaten
- 1 cup marinara sauce

To start, preheat your oven to 450°F. Then, prepare the chicken by trimming any excess fat and pounding the breasts to an even thickness.Next, combine the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese in a shallow bowl. Put the flour in another shallow bowl, and the beaten egg whites in a third bowl. Dip each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess, then the egg whites, and finally the breadcrumb mixture. Place the chicken on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake the chicken for about 20 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the oven and top each breast with marinara sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve the chicken hot, garnished with chopped fresh basil.
