1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup fat-free parmesan cheese
1 tbsp dried Italian parsley
1 egg, beaten
2/3 cup Spaghetti Sauce

Place 1 chicken breast half, boned side up, between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper. Working from center, gently pound chicken with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick; remove wrap. Repeat with remaining chicken breast halves. In medium bowl, combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and parsley; mix well. Dip chicken in beaten egg; coat with bread crumb mixture.
