Grilled Chicken Parmesan

Classic chicken parm is deep-fried and smothered in cheese — a restaurant portion can top 1,000 calories and 50 grams of fat! My slimmed-down version allows you to enjoy this Italian favorite without delivering a blow to your arteries and waistline.

Grill the chicken breasts or sauté in a skillet coated oil spray over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until no longer pink in the center.
3
Transfer the chicken breasts to the prepared baking sheet. Top each chicken breast with 2 tablespoons marinara sauce and ¼ cup cheese. Place under the broiler until the cheese is hot and bubbly (or microwave for 30 to 60 seconds to melt cheese).
