(Points: 5)
Ingredients: 1 pound uncooked boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly pounded (four 4-oz pieces) 2 large egg whites, lightly beaten 1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning 1 tsp olive oil 1 1/2 cup canned tomato sauce 1/2 cup part-skim mozzarella chesse, shredded 1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350. Coat an 8-inch square pan with cooking spray. Dip chicken in egg whites, and turn to coat. Mix bread crumbs with Italian seasoning in a seperate dish. Dip chicken breast in bread crumb mixture, turn to coat throughly. Heat oil in a large skillet; add chicken. Cook until lightly browned and no longer pink in the middle.
Pour 1/2 cup of sauce into prepared baking dish (side note: I flavored my tomato sauce with diced garlic, onion powder and dried basil and orgeno. I think plain tomoato sauce is boring and wanted to make it interesting); place chicken in dish and pour remaining sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with cheeses and bake until bubbly, 20-25 minutes depending on your oven.
