Equipment

  • food processor or blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound thinly sliced boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 2 large eggs
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup Whisps Cheese Crumbs Italian Herb *see above for alternative
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce or marinara
  • 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil

Instructions
 

  • Add 1/2 cup avocado oil to bottom of deep skillet and turn heat to medium low
  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • Add eggs, salt, and garlic powder to a shallow dish and whisk to combine
  • In a separate shallow dish, add cheese crumbs 
  • Working one at a time, dip your thinly sliced chicken breast into the egg mixture and coat both sides
  • Then dip into your crumb mixture, making sure to coat both sides well
  • Once you have all of the chicken coated with the cheese crumbs, carefully add two at a time to the skillet and fry on each side until golden brown. This helps the crumbs adhere to the chicken so they don’t fall off during baking.
  • Add pan-fried chicken breasts to baking sheet and bake at 400°F for 10-20 minutes, until chicken has cooked through (time will depend on the thickness of your chicken)
  • *If your chicken cooks through during the pan-frying process, you do not need to bake it
  • Top each chicken breast with 2 tablespoons pizza sauce or marinara and 2 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Turn on oven broiler and place the baking sheet back in the oven under the broiler until the cheese has melted
  • Serve immediately!
