how to make baked chicken parmesan and zucchini Noodles
Step 1: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9×13″ baking pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
Step 2: Trim the chicken breasts into even pieces, pounding them if necessary to make them an equal thickness.
Step 3: In a medium bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt and pepper.
Step 4: In another small bowl, add the beaten eggs. Dip each piece of chicken in the eggs, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture.
Step 5: Place covered chicken piece in the prepared pan and repeat with remaining pieces.
Step 6: Cook in preheated oven for 30-40 minutes (or until internal temperature of chicken reaches 165 degrees).
Step 7: Add a little bit of sauce and a piece of mozzarella on each chicken piece, then return to the oven for 4-5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
Step 8: Serve over shredded zucchini with remaining sauce.
