How to Make Low Fat Chicken Milanese

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil.
  2. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1 large egg white with 1 tablespoon of water.
  3. In a separate shallow dish, combine 1 cup panko bread crumbs and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  4. Season chicken breasts (about 4, 6 oz each) with salt and pepper.
  5. Dip each chicken breast in the egg white mixture, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
  8. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  9. Add 1/2 cup dry white wine, 1/4 cup chicken broth, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon anchovy paste, and 1 sprig fresh rosemary to the skillet.
  10. Bring to a simmer and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the sauce slightly reduces and thickens.
  11. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water to form a slurry.
  12. Stir the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened (about 1 minute).
  13. Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
  14. Carefully add the baked chicken to the sauce, turning to coat evenly.
  15. Serve immediately, spooning the sauce over the chicken. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
