This recipe tastes just like a chicken Parm! I was trying to find something that was healthy and tasty and this is it!

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1 egg
• ½ cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 3 tablespoons tomato paste, divided
• 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 cup crushed tomatoes
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 4 slices provolone cheese
• 4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split

Cooking Directions

1. Combine chicken, egg, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon tomato paste, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Form mixture into 4 patties. Press gently to flatten.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet. Cook patties until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate.
3. Cook and stir onion in the drippings left in the skillet until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, and chicken stock. Cook until thickened and reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
4. Return patties to the skillet; cover with tomato sauce. Place 1 slice of provolone cheese over each patty. Cover skillet and cook until cheese melts slightly, about 1 minute.
5. Place patties on buns; spoon tomato sauce on top.
