Grilled Chicken Parmesan

Grilled Chicken Parmesan

Yield: Serves 2

Nutritional Information based on 1 of 2 servings

INGREDIENTS

• 1 large chicken breast (around 350g to 400g)
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• Salt, pepper and dried thyme, to taste
• 30g low fat mozzerella cheese, grated
• 30g fresh parmesan cheese, grated
For the tomato sauce
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 celery rib, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp dried oregano
• 1 small can (410g) diced tomatoes
• 1-2 tbsp tomato paste
• 10-12 fresh basil leaves

INSTRUCTIONS

1. First, you need to cut your chicken breast in half. To do that, place it on a cutting board and, while holding your knife parallel to the cutting board, start cutting down the length of the side of the breast, keeping your incision as centered as possible. Keep slicing the breast widthwise until you get to the other edge.
2. It might help to place a FLAT hand on top of the chicken breast and apply just a little bit of pressure on it.
3. Rub each chicken breast half with olive oil and sprinkle salt, pepper and dried thyme all over it. Transfer to a plate and set to rest in the refrigerator while you work on the tomato sauce.
4. Coat a large saucepan with a little bit of olive oil and heat over medium high heat. When pan is hot enough, add the onion, celery, salt, pepper and oregano and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant and onion becomes translucent. Stir in garlic and continue cooking for another minute. Add tomatoes and tomato paste, stir well and bring to the boil then reduce heat and simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, stirring from time to time.
5. Meanwhile, preaheat your outdoor grill to medium high heat. Place the half chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked all the way through.
6. Transfer the chicken breasts to individual oven safe dishes. Top each breast with half the tomato sauce, then sprinkle the cheeses overtop the two dishes.
7. Place on the higher rack of your oven and set to broil, just until cheeses melt and start to bubble and turn golden brown.
8. Serve with a side of greens or better yet, grilled vegetables!
