Chicken Parmesan~Serves 2
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4-6 oz each)
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 tablespoon olive oil, divided
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 head romaine lettuce
1 tablespoon Caesar dressing, fat free
1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, grated
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
PREPARE CHICKEN
On a plate, combine cheese, oregano, paprika, salt and pepper.
Lightly brush each chicken breast with a small amount of oil, then dredge chicken into the cheese mixture. In a small frying pan, melt butter and 1 teaspoon of oil together over medium-high heat. Lightly brown chicken on both sides then place in the foil lined baking pan. Bake for about 25 – 30 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Serve with a side Caesar salad.
MAKE SALAD
Toss Romain lettuce, fat-free Caesar dressing and a little grated parmesan cheese together. Go easy on the dressing! It doesn’t take much!
IF IT’S A HIGH CARB DAY: (or for the people in your house who aren’t carb-cycling) serve 2 whole grain bread sticks with Garlic bread seasoning.
