An easy meal that will impress your date. 

Serves 4

INGREDIENTS
4 (4-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 large egg whites, lightly beaten
1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grates Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
4 cups hot cooked spaghetti (about 8 ounces uncooked)
3 cups tomato sauce (try to use a low fat, low sodium variety)
1 cup shredded part skim mozzarella cheese (about 4 ounces)
Parmesan cheese for garnishing

DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Set out three small, shallow bowls. Put flour in first dish; egg whites in the second dish; and combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning in the third dish.
3. Dredge each chicken breast first in the flour; then in the egg whites; then in the breadcrumb mixture. Place in a large, shallow baking dish.
4. Bake the chicken in the oven for 12 minutes. Then flip each chicken breast and continue baking for another 12 minutes. Sprinkle 1/4 cup mozzarella on each chicken breast and bake another 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked though.
5. Place each chicken breast half on top of 1 cup cooked spaghetti and cover with 3/4 cup of warm tomato sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and enjoy!
