Free Baked Crisp Chicken Parmesan Recipe

Baked crisp chicken parmesan is much yummier than chicken tenders on any given day.

I highly recommend it for weeknight cooking since it’s quick to prepare and easy to assemble and then all you have to do is pop it in the oven for about a half hour.

In the meantime, you can freshen up and change, have a cup of tea, or whatever else. And then *ping*, it’s done!

And oh my, is it rewarding. It’s creamy, cheesy, luscious, scrumptious, and truly mouth-watering.

This Baked Crisp Chicken Parmesan is a classic Italian entrée – crisp, tender, flavorful chicken breasts coated with an aromatic mix of traditional Italian spices and herbs. It’s served with a generous topping of delicious marinara sauce and cheese, baked until golden, melty, and bubbly.

Ingredients:

  • 4 (4oz) chicken breasts
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 slices mozzarella or provolone cheese, or 3/4 cup shredded cheese
  • 1 cup jarred low carb marinara sauce, such as Rao's brand

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Beat the egg in one bowl, and combine parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, parsley, and salt and pepper in another.
  3. Coat the chicken in the egg, then dredge in cheese and spice mixture to coat. Place chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake the chicken for 20 minutes.
  5. Remove chicken from oven and top with sauce and cheese, return to oven to cook for another 10 minutes or until cheese is melty and chicken is fully cooked.
