Classic Chicken Parm never gets old, but this Skinnytaste Baked Chicken Parm is a simplified, better-for-you version perfect for weeknights. The chicken is baked instead of fried, so you still get a crispy outside without using excessive oil. And no egg wash means one less step! Finally, it's topped with picky-eater favorites: flavorful marinara and just the right amount of mozzarella. It's everything you know and love in a chicken, Parm only way easier and made with less calories. Gina Homolka, recipe developer and author of Skinnytaste, best-selling cookbook series and popular food blog, offers approachable takes on balanced, home-cooked meals.
