Ingredients:
Method:
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Cook eggplant slices in two batches for 2 minutes each side or until golden, adding another 1 tbsp oil for the second batch. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  2. Return same pan to medium-high heat. Add remaining oil and chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes each side or until golden and almost cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Add tomatoes to pan and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until softened. Add Celebrate Health Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce to pan and simmer for 2-3 minutes or until thick.
  3. Preheat grill on high. Return chicken to pan. Top each piece of chicken with 2 eggplant slices and some cheese. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, then place under preheated grill until cheese is melted and bubbling.
  4. Scatter with the toasted pine nuts and serve topped with basil leaves and a mixed salad.

Low carb chicken parmy.

Really delicious & easy to make for a midweek meal. I love my chicken but could of easily eaten it just with the eggplant. I added a couple of thinly sliced cloves of garlic and a mixture of 3 cheeses instead, but really good and will make again. Served with mixed salad greens and avocado. Yum!
