Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Spray a cooling rack with nonstick cooking spray and set it over a baking sheet. Set aside.
- Place the bread in a food processor or blender and process until you have fine crumbs. Pour the crumbs into a shallow bowl and add the 1/4 cup Parmesan, parsley, paprika, garlic powder and thyme. Mix to combine.
- Pour the buttermilk into a separate shallow bowl.
- With a sharp knife, butterfly open each of the chicken breasts (cutting them open like a book), cutting each into 2 thinner pieces of chicken, for a total of 6 pieces. Dip each piece into the buttermilk, then into the breadcrumb mixture, using your hands to adhere the crumbs to the chicken if needed. Transfer to the cooling rack in a single layer.
- Bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Serve topped with the marinara and additional Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Notes
- Keep it healthy by serving the chicken on top of a bed of spaghetti squash.
