One of the winter participants, lost 12 pounds by week 5. This could be you! For those of you who weren’t around for the winter launch, here’s a quick run down.

My group coaching program is done virtually via Facebook. When you sign up, you get access to my coaching portal with my transformation coaching program.

Let’s face it. There’s a lot of confusing information out there about foods and many foods are marketed as healthy but they are not. I break it down and make it easy so you can navigate that sea of confusion! As one of the ladies said, it’s like having a personal nutritionist with the motivation of a community and the right education.

But this isn’t just any online course where I send you a bunch of videos and say adios. This is your opportunity to work with me 1:1 VIRTUALLY! During the 12 weeks of the program, you get real access to a nutrition to get the right nutrition and right answers.

Perfect for those who need flexibility or don’t have the ability to work with me 1:1!

Okay, so the really REALLY important thing you need to know is there is a cap on the number of participants. Because I work with you virtually throughout the 12 weeks, I only allow so many people into the program. This is so I can give you the attention you need so you can succeed!

This time around I’ll be throwing in a challenge for the group and a prize for the person who loses the most weight! What do you have to lose? Haha…kidding! I think it’s appropriate given the topic.

Now that we got that business out of the way, let’s talk about one of my all time favorite recipes Chicken Parmesan! Except this isn’t just any old chicken parmesan. This is healthy, chicken parmesan made with wholesome ingredients baked to perfection on a single sheet pan.

Oh wait, did someone say sheet pan? Oh yeah…I’m kind of obsessed with the one pan/sheet pan recipes.

I have a few here on the blog for you to checkout in your spare time -> One Pan Lemon Garlic Shrimp & Brussels Sprouts, One Pan Baked Coconut Shrimp and One Pan Salmon Asparagus & Sweet Potato.

I started making one pan dinners last summer because they made cooking and cleanup so easy. I love to cook, but seriously cleaning up is for the birds. Boo…who’s got time for that when you’re eating deliciousness like this Sheet Pan Chicken Parmesan?

Sheet Pan Chicken Parmesan

Crispy, cheesy, oven baked chicken with a spicy kick. It’s fried chicken that’s skinny, lighter, juicier and NOT fried!

Chicken that tastes like fried chicken but is secretly baked, or is it really a secret now that I’m telling you? Either way, you’ll be able to fool all the unhealthy eaters in your house with this recipe. It’s like the unfried version of your favorite southern fried chicken!

Add marinara sauce to the sheet pan with spinach to bake with the chicken. It makes it extra juicy and moist!

Serve the chicken with marinara and spinach on top giving it that Chicken Parmesan feel. Add whole grain pasta to the dish if you’re feeling if you’re feeling pasta-licious!

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 F. Prepare a nonstick baking sheet by sprinkling 1 tbsp. of almond flour over it. Set aside.
In a small bowl, add the egg with 2 tbsp. water. Whisk together until frothy.
In a separate bowl, combine the remaining almond flour with spices, salt, pepper & cheese. Sift together until mixed well.
Create an assembly line by lining everything in the following order - egg wash bowl, almond flour then sheet pan.
Dip a chicken breast into the egg wash, then immediately into the flour mixture. Coat the chicken generously with the mixture then shake off a bit before placing on the sheet pan. Repeat for remaining chicken breasts.
Drizzle the chicken with the extra virgin olive oil, dividing it evenly among the chicken breasts.
Bake 15 minutes then remove from the oven, add marinara sauce and spinach surrounding the chicken breasts.
Bake another 10-15 minutes until the chicken is crispy and slightly brown and the marinara sauce is bubbly.
Serve immediately by drizzling each chicken breast with marinara sauce from the pan and spinach leaves.
