Last night I made chicken parmesan on top of spaghetti, and I must say this is a meal worth making many times! I have made this multiple times since joining weight watchers. Thats right its a weight watchers meal! So I thought I would share this easy meal with others so they can enjoy it as much as we do! Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the finished product, so just a recipe :)
Ingredients:
4 (8 oz) Boneless, skinless, chicken breasts, sliced in half
3/4 c. seasoned breadcrumbs (Italian bread crumbs)
1/4 c. grated parmesan cheese ( I just use the bottle parmesan cheese, I dont actually grate any)
2 tbsp butter, melted
3/4 c. reduced fat mozzarella cheese
1 c. marinara (I use a whole jar cause I top the chicken on spaghetti noodles)
1/2 lb. spaghetti noodles
cooking spray
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Clean up chicken. Get a pot of water boiling for the pasta. Spray a large baking sheet lightly with spray.
Combine breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese in a bowl. Melt butter in another bowl. Lightly dip the chicken breast into the butter so that both sides have butter on them, then dip the chicken into the breadcrumbs so its covered on both sides. Place on baking sheet and repeat with the remaining chicken.
Lightly spray a little more cooking spray on top of chicken and bake for 20 min. Cook pasta according to box. Warm up marinara in a small pot. Turn chicken over after 20 min. is up and bake for another 5 min. Remove from oven, spoon sauce on top of chicken and top with shredded mozzarella. Bake 5 more min. or until cheese is melted.
Serve chicken on top of spaghetti and marinara sauce and ready for eating! I will make a french bread loaf to go with it and its SO yummy! Hope you enjoy as much as we do!
