Make Chicken Parm the Healthy Way in this Air Fryer Recipe!

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while maintaining texture.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a high smoke point and is healthier.

bread crumbs

🥗Healthier: panko

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Panko gives a lighter texture, while crushed crackers are often cheaper.

Prepare the chicken breasts by coating them in all-purpose flour, then dip them in olive oil, and finally coat them with panko breadcrumbs.

Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and chilli flakes.

Place the coated chicken breasts in the air fryer and cook until crispy and cooked through.

Prepare the marinara sauce using San Marzano tomatoes and garlic, blending them together until smooth.

Serve the crispy chicken with the marinara sauce on top.
