Gluten Free Baked Chicken Parmesan

This version of Gluten Free Baked Chicken Parmesan is easy as it requires no breading. I do everything in a single cast iron skillet which makes clean-up much faster. If you have a bigger family, you’ll want to transfer the chicken to a baking dish once you’ve seared the chicken instead of keeping it in the cast iron skillet.

Ingredients:

• 1 boneless skinless chicken breast per person
• 1/2 cup sauce for each person
• 1/8 – 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese for each person
• seasoning (I use oregano, basil, garlic powder)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Preheat cast iron skillet over medium high heat.
2. Once cast iron skillet is hot, sprinkle one side of the chicken breast liberally with seasoning and place seasoned side down in skillet. Continue for the rest of the chicken breasts.
3. Sprinkle the other side of the chicken breast with seasoning prior to flipping.
4. Cook chicken on each side for approximately 2 minutes to give a nice light brown color.
5. Remove cast iron skillet (with chicken breasts in it) and place in oven.
6. Bake until internal temperature of chicken reaches 150 degrees.
7. Remove from oven and cover each chicken breast with sauce and sprinkle on Parmesan cheese.
8. Place back into the oven until internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
9. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes prior to serving.
10. Serve with veggies or over pasta/rice
