• 200 gr (WHOLE WHEAT) PASTA
• 300 gr CHICKEN FILLET
• 1 EGG
• 70 g BREAD CRUMBS (PANKO) or (whole wheat) cornflakes
• 1 CAN OF TOMATOES (400 gr)
• 60 gr PARMIGIANO REGGIANO CHEESE
• 150g MOZZARELLA
• 4 tspTHE SPICE CLUB ITALIAN

Step 1: Preheat Oven and Cook Pasta

• Preheat the oven to 200°C. Bring a large pot of water to the boil, add a pinch of salt and cook the whole wheat pasta according to the instructions on the package.
• Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and set it aside.
• In a shallow bowl, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons of THE SPICE CLUB ITALIAN spice mix. Add a little salt and pepper to taste.

Step 2: Prepare chicken fillets

• Take another bowl and beat the egg in it. Dip each chicken breast in the beaten egg and then coat in the breadcrumb mixture.
• Press the breadcrumbs firmly so that it sticks well to the chicken.

Step 3: Bake Chicken

• Place the breaded chicken fillets on a baking tray lined with baking paper. If you want the chicken to be extra crispy, you can lightly spray it with olive oil spray.
• Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown and crispy.

Step 4: Adding Tomato Sauce and Mozzarella

• Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the canned tomatoes over each piece of chicken. Then top each chicken breast with a generous amount of grated mozzarella.
• Return the chicken to the oven and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and bubbly.
• Serve the breaded chicken fillet with tomato sauce and mozzarella on top of a bed of whole wheat pasta.
