Ingredients

  1. Cooking spray
  2. 6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, about 5 ounces each
  3. Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  4. 1 cup all-purpose flour
  5. 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  6. 1 cup panko crumbs or unseasoned dry bread crumbs
  7. 1 cup grated Parmesan
  8. 2 cups canned or jarred tomato sauce
  9. 2 teaspoons wasabi paste
  10. 2 teaspoons sugar
  11. 1 teaspoon chili powder
  12. 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  13. 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
  3. For the chicken:
  4. Season both sides of chicken with salt and black pepper. Place flour in a shallow dish. Place eggs in a separate shallow dish. Combine panko crumbs and Parmesan in a third shallow dish. Dip chicken first in flour, then in the egg and then panko crumb mixture. Transfer chicken to the prepared baking sheet and spray the surface with cooking spray. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oven.
  5. For the sauce:
  6. While the chicken is cooking, in a small saucepan, combine tomato sauce, wasabi paste, sugar, chili powder, and cumin. Set pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer, for 10 minutes. Remove pan from heat and reserve 2/3 cup of the sauce.
  7. Serve 4 of the chicken breast halves with remaining tomato sauce spooned over top. Reserve remaining chicken and 2/3 cup of the sauce for another use.

Pretty easy & tasty. I would’ve never thought to add wasabi to tomato sauce but it was really good!
Selena Gray
in the video she never added the parmesan to the panko…
Stacie Richards
Turned out amazing. The video shoes that if you put the chicken on a baking rack and then spray oil on top, the panko chicken turns out crunchy on all sides. It was delicious, especially with the tomato sauce and the wasabi really added some depth and dimension to the sauce.

I made is without the sauce and used the Italian panko crumbs instead and was very good.
James White
It’s yummy but a tip: coat the bottom of the pan that u are using with olive oil before placing the chinken in and baking.i was waiting for it to get like gloden brown but it never did because the breeding is dry.

Awesome recipe. For a novice cook this was easy to prepare. Being a single Dad and working 2 jobs this was definitely quick and easy. Thank you Robin Miller.
Jaime Reed

FANTASTIC…. easy, yummy and my 4 and 7 year old boys licked the sauce off their plates! I highly recommend!!

Delicious and loved the baking rather than pan frying. I omitted the cilantro….added some fresh parsley and italian seasoning instead. Need about 3 eggs. Lined and sprayed my pan with foil. Also sprayed top of chicken and sprinkled with garlic salt after coated to help brown it up and add flavor to the panko. My family loved the dinner…especially the sauce. The wasabi powder is a must and adds great flavor. Also sprinkled with grated mozzarella a few min. before removing from oven. Served with rigatoni noodles! Great Dinner.
