Recipe: Chicken Parmesan
One of CoachWoot’s favorites!!! It is just GOOD food. Yes, this is chicken parmesan, but that does NOT mean it has to be unhealthy (check out the chicken-less parmesan vegetarian version here). And because we are cooking from scratch we can put the dish together to fit the macronutrient profile of the P90X Phase 2: Energy Booster/INSANITY Elite Nutrition (40/40/20) OR the P90X Phase 1: Fat Shredder (50/30/20) plans. The key is to use healthier ingredient options. And it tastes just as good the second day.
- thinly sliced boneless, skinless chicken breast
- chopped onion
- crushed garlic clove (or minced garlic)
- small amount of olive oil
- part skim mozzarella cheese
- Prego Italian Sauce (or similar)
- Ronzoni Garden Delight Pasta Blend (or similar)
Boil water in a large pot and add pasta. Cook for about 10 minutes. In the meantime, put a small amount of olive oil in a saute pan and place over medium heat. When the oil gets hazy, add the onion and garlic. Cook and stir for 3 minutes. Add the skinless, boneless chicken breast and brown chicken. Warm sauce in small saucepan (or microwave). Serve chicken on plate and add sauce and mozzarella cheese. Broil (or microwave) until mozzarella cheese is melted. Drain pasta and add to side to serve.
Preparation Time: 25 minutes
