Ingredients

• 4 bnls sknls chicken breast halves, pounded thin
• 2 slices ww bread, processed into crumbs*
• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, seperate in two equal portions
• Italian seasoning to taste
• 1/2 c eggbeaters, beaten with 1 T water
• 4 thin slices low fat mozzarella or provolone
• 1 cup sf tomato or marinara sauce
• 3-4T olive oil
• s&p to taste
• non-stick cooking spray

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350

2. Mix breadcrumbs with half of the parmesan, Italian seasoning to tast (1 use 1T) season with s&p if desired. Dip chicken halves in egg wash, then coat lightly with crumb and cheese mix. After coating, let chicken stand 5 minutes.

3. Heat the olive oil over med-hi heat in a LARGE nonstick skillet. Brown the chicken 2 pieces at a time. Place browned chicken on a cookie sheet or in shallow baking pan covered with aluminum foil that has been sprayed with pam.

4. Cover each chicken piece with 1/4 cup tomato sauce (I make my own with onions garlic and basil, but if you purchase something like ragu, just make sure you get a low sugar one), sprinkle with 1/4 of the reserved parmesan. Place in oven for 5-7 mins. Remove chicken and place 1 slice of cheese on each piece. Return to oven for 3-5 mins more. It’s done!

5. I serve this along with 1/2 cup of ww pasta per person, and a side salad or green veggie.
