Low Carb Chicken Parmesan

Ok, so I am not exactly sure that Chicken Parmesan is the right name for this.  Also, I am probably not the first person to try this.  But everyone I have told about this has said it's the first they've heard of it.  I am determined to still eat the foods I like, just as a low carb option.  So here goes:
Ingredients:
4 Chicken breasts
1/4 cup Ragu Spaghetti Sauce
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Garlic powder
Italian seasoning mix
1 tbsp olive oil

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
In square Pyrex (or any glass pan), cover bottom with olive oil.  It really doesn't take very much, just a little patience to spread it around the pan.  Place the chicken breasts in the pan and sprinkle showing side with garlic powder and italian seasoning.  Once oven is ready, bake chicken for 8 minutes.  Flip and sprinkle other side with seasonings and bake for another 6-8 minutes.













Now you're basically done!  Now to add the spaghetti sauce, it takes about a spoonful per breast.  Next is the mozzarella cheese!














Simply place in the oven for another 3-5 minutes to allow cheese to melt and enjoy!
