Low Fat Baked Panko Chicken Parmesan with Roasted Tomato Jam

Last year at about this time we featured a recipe for bruschetta which featured an intensely flavored roasted tomato jam. http://rockrecipes.blogspot.com/2008/11/roasted-tomato-jam-and-goat-cheese.html

I sometimes make large batches of this jam, just to have a couple of bottles of it on hand to use in other favorite recipes. This low fat baked version of chicken Parmesan is one of my favorite uses for it to make a quick workday meal that is pretty healthy too, especially if you opt for a whole grain pasta. This recipe definitely deserves a place in your weekday meal idea arsenal.

  • 4 large boneless chicken breasts
  • salt and pepper to season
  • flour for dredging
  • 1 egg + 1 tbsp water, whisked to make an egg wash
  • panko crumbs
  • olive oil

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, dredge in flour, dip in the egg wash and then roll in the panko crumbs. Place in a lightly oiled baking dish and lightly spray olive oil over the tops of the chicken breasts. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 45-50 minutes or until the chicken is completely cooked. Turn the chicken breasts once during the cooking time.

Slice cooked chicken breasts and serve on angel hair pasta , topped with Roasted Tomato Jam ( or your favorite tomato sauce) and grated parmesan cheese . You can melt mozzarella over the top along with the parmesan if you wish.
