SKINNY CHICKEN PARMESAN<br />

Ingredients<br />

3 chicken breasts halved longways to make 6 portions<br />

2 Tbs olive oil<br />

Spike seasoning<br />

1/2 onion - diced<br />

1 shallot - diced<br />

4 (medium) garlic cloves - crushed<br />

2 cans no salt added diced tomatoes<br />

1 tsp Italian seasoning<br />

1/2 tsp celery seed<br />

1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes<br />

4 Tbsp basil, Chiffonade into whispy slices<br />

1 cup grape tomatoes, slice in 1/3s<br />

6 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese<br />

Directions<br />

Preheat the oven to 350. Cut each chicken breast in half<br />

lengthwise to make 6 equal portions. Season both sides<br />

of the chicken breasts with Spike Seasoning. In a large<br />

skillet - we like cast iron, heat 2 Tbs olive oil and sear the<br />

chicken breasts on both sides. They don’t have to cook<br />

all the way through, but come close. Remove the chicken<br />

from the skillet and set aside. Over medium-high heat,<br />

saute the onion, shallot, and garlic, use a little water to<br />

deglaze the pan. Once browned, add the canned tomatoes<br />

and heat. Add Italian seasoning, celery seed, and red<br />

pepper and heat through. Add the chicken breasts back<br />

into the tomatoes and bake for 15 minutes. Sprinkle<br />

with 1/4C grated mozzarella and broil for 3 more minutes<br />

until the cheese is melted and golden (watch carefully<br />

to prevent burning.) Serve the chicken with the sauce,<br />

sprinkled with basil and fresh grape tomatoes. We love<br />

it over zoodles. Spiralize the zucchini and gently squeeze<br />

with paper towels to remove moisture. The heat of the<br />

chicken and sauce will heat the zoodles. Weight Watchers<br />
