Healthier Chicken Parmesan

Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken cutlets
  • 2 Tbsps olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsps Italian seasoning
  • sea salt ground pepper to taste
  • 1 cup marinara sauce or more
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 450 degrees f.
  • Drizzle the chicken with the oil and sprinkle it with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, sea salt, and pepper. Rub it on both sides really well.
  • Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken until nicely golden-brown on both sides. About 4 minutes on each side.
  • Spoon your marinara sauce into the skillet over the chicken. Coat chicken to your liking with the marinara. I personally like a lot of sauce so I add extra.
  • Sprinkle the chicken with mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese.
  • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted.
  • Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve while hot and melty.
  • Enjoy!
