Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 cup marinara sauce (low-sodium, sugar-free)
• 1 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Italian-style breadcrumbs (light or whole wheat)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 as needed olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil spray and set aside.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper on both sides.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium heat, spray a little olive oil and sauté the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the baby spinach and sauté for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Set the spinach aside.

Step 5

Spread 1/4 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Place the browned chicken breasts on top of the marinara sauce.

Step 6

Distribute the sautéed spinach evenly over the chicken breasts. Top each chicken breast with the remaining marinara sauce, dividing equally.

Step 7

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the marinara sauce, followed by grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 8

In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with a pinch of Italian seasoning. Sprinkle this breadcrumb mixture over the cheese to give the dish a lightly crispy topping.

Step 9

Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F) and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy this delicious, WW-friendly Spinach Chicken Parmesan!
