PROS

This easy chicken dish is simple to prepare and can be on the table in under an hour.

It’s healthy, flavorful, and perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.

The breadcrumbs add a great crunch and texture to the chicken, and the leeks and garlic give it a nice depth of flavor.

CONS

The only drawback to this dish is the breadcrumb topping, which can make it a bit higher in calories than plain chicken.
However, the healthier ingredients and lean protein make this a great option for a balanced meal.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Chicken is a great source of lean protein and is rich in vitamins and minerals such as niacin, selenium, and phosphorus.
The olive oil in this dish is high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, and the leeks and garlic contain antioxidants and are known for their immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties.
Italian plum tomatoes are a great source of vitamin C and potassium, and can help promote healthy digestion and lower the risk of chronic diseases.
