if you really want to get on the lighter side of things you can always serve this up with a healthy side salad and some lemon water.

Let's Get Started…

The Ingredients To Gather:

• 2 zucchini, chopped (about 10 ounces)
• 1 yellow squash, chopped (about 6 ounces)
• 1 small onion, sliced (about 1/2 cup)
• 1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 sprigs fresh thyme
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1/8 teaspoon cracked black pepper
• 1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan cheese
• 16 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into four 4-ounce portions
• 3 tablespoons egg whites, beaten (or 2 egg whites)
• 1 cup panko bread crumbs
• 3 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
• 1/8 teaspoon sweet paprika

The Step By Step Directions To Follow:

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. Place the vegetables in the bottom of a covered baking dish along with the thyme. Drizzle on the oil, then sprinkle the pepper over the vegetables.
3. Cover and bake for 15 minutes, then remove the lid, stir the vegetables again, and bake until the chicken is ready.
4. During the first 15 minutes the vegetables are cooking, prepare the chicken.
5. Pat each piece dry with paper towels, then assemble a breading station.
6. Place the egg whites in a flat, shallow dish, then mix the bread crumbs, cheese and paprika in a second shallow dish.
7. Dip each piece of chicken into the egg whites, then into the breading mixture. Lightly mist each piece of chicken with cooking spray on the top and bottom.
8. Carefully remove the preheated baking dish from the oven.
9. Place the chicken in the dish and bake, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes, until the breading is golden brown and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
10. Five minutes before serving, sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese over the vegetables.

Finished!
