Low Fat Chicken Parmesan Mediterranean - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 -4 tablespoons mixed Italian herbs
1 cup breadcrumbs
400 g canned tomatoes
1/2 cup reduced-fat feta cheese
1/2 cup low fat mozzarella
cooking spray
Preparation
-
NOTE: I cut chivken breasts horizontally as I like thinner chicken breasts.
RINSE chicken and pat dry; rub with Italian herbs.
In bowl, combine breadcrumbs and feta cheese.
NOTE: I used the back of a fork to break down feat cheese into much smaller pieces.
DREDGE chicken breasts into breadcrumb mixture making sure both sides are coated.
I used Health Griller (lightly sprayed)but you can also make this on the stovetop in a lightly oiled fry pan.
COOK about 6 minutes until golden brown.
Place chicken breasts on flat tray.
Spoon canned tomatoes over top of chicken breast and cover with mozarella cheese; place under griller until tomato sauce is hot and cheese has melted
NOTE: I used Canned tomatoes with Basil and Garlic for more flavouring; can use any type pasta sauce too -- is simply up to you! :).
NOTE: Can heat up canned tomatoes or tomato sauce before you put it in the chicken -- I just spoon it out of the can for ease.
NOTE: These freeze well.
NOTE: Depending on the size of your chicken breasts, you may have to adjust for more or less breadcrumb/feta combination.
ENJOY!
