Instructions

  1. Cook chicken pieces according to package instructions in either the oven or the air fryer. Tip: If using the oven, convection mode will achieve extra crispy pieces.
  2. When chicken is fully cooked, remove from oven and top each piece with about 2 tablespoons shredded cheese, followed by a couple spoonfuls of marinara. Depending on the size of your chicken pieces, this could be anywhere from 2-4 tablespoons.
  3. Top with an additional 2 tablespoons cheese, or more if desired.
  4. Return pan to oven for 1-2 minutes, just until sauce is heated through and cheese is melted. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Check your grocer for breaded chicken breasts.  My two favorites are brands I purchase in the frozen foods aisle of Costco.  We like both the Tyson Panko Breaded Chicken Tenderloins and also the Just Bare brand Chicken Filets.
  • Nutrition notes: this recipe was calculated with the use of non-breaded chicken breasts, as frozen breaded chicken breasts were not available for selection in our nutrition calculation software. If you are looking to calculate your calories, be aware that your totals will be different depending on your brand of choice.
