Now finding meals that are on plan for me but ones that my kids will love is important! We have been making this Chicken Parmesan for four years, it is so easy to bake in the oven and pairs perfect with a salad.  I prefer to do a homemade Olive garden salad most times using  Olive Garden Salad Dressing and Kraft Grated Parmesan Cheese for a low point salad! However, sometimes I still enjoy my pasta with my Chicken Parmesan!

WHAT IS Weight Watchers?

When starting any new weight loss program or diet changes be sure to consult with a doctor or physician about any personal health concerns. It is a good idea to have blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and hormones checked at a physical before and during being on the WW program.

New to Weight Watchers?? Also known as WW, a weight loss program uses points assigned to food to track and lose weight. When you sign up, you take an assessment that will assign you a point value to eat daily and a weekly allowance. You can carry over 4 points from the day into your weekly allowance, which is handy when you need more points.

I have been on Weight Watchers since 2011. They have had Points Plus Value, WW Smartpoints, blue plan, green plan, purple plan, WW Personal Points, and now Weight Watchers Points. The new Weight Watchers Simplified plan is the new program launched in November 2022 is similar to previous plans like WW Smartpoints, with some color plans.

No matter the WW plan, they work to help you learn healthy eating habits. I have hit lifetime goal weight a couple of times but stopped operating the plan and tracking, so the weight does creep back on. You do stay on as a lifetime member, just working towards goal. Head on over ->here to get a month for free.

**I first made this recipe in 2014 and it has been reupdated in 2023 to reflect the new Weight Watchers Program points**

Weight Watchers Parmesan Chicken  Ingredients:

  • Chicken Breasts – Boneless skinless chicken breasts are what is zero points on Weight Watchers and bring down the point value of this entree.
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Panko Breadcrumbs
  • Paprika
  • Dried Parsley
  • Garlic Salt
  • Pepper
  • Egg
 

How To Make WW Parmesan Chicken:

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees

Spray a baking dish with a nonstick spray and set to the side. I used a 9×13 Pyrex dish and had plenty of room for the chicken.

Seasonings for Weight Watchers Chicken Parmesan in white bowl

In a bowl, combine all your dry ingredients and stir together with a fork until well blended.

Crack the egg into a separate bowl for an egg wash to brush onto your chicken before dipping it into the breading. 

Beat your egg with a fork.

Use a basting brush to brush the egg onto your chicken breasts.

Use a fork to dip your chicken into your breading until it is well coated. 

**You could do this in a bag as well, but I did a bowl this time**

Place your breaded chicken breast into your baking dish.

Repeat until all chicken breasts are coated.

Bake in the oven for about 35 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees or higher. Use a meat thermometer to verify the temperature.

Only the cheese and the bread crumbs have points in this recipe. Now you don’t use all the breading in this but I err on the side of caution and would rather track to many points. If you have a lot left or bread your peice less then others you could manually track yours for a low point value.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH CHICKEN PARMESAN:

  • Green Salad
  • Vegetable Stir Fry
  • Oven Roasted Potatoes
  • Green Beans

    Tried and true recipe that really packs flavor. For an alternative, I added minced garlic to the egg and dried the chicken with a towel before dipping it in the egg mixture. I then laid the chicken on top of a layer of tomato sauce prior to baking. It turns out fantastic served with roasted zucchini and egg noodles.
