- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup dried bread crumbs

Topping
- 1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook for 3 to 4 minutes to soften. Stir often so that the garlic doesn't burn.Remove from heat and let cool.
- To a large bowl, add ground chicken, egg, milk, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepepr flakes.Add the cooked onion and garlic and mix everything together well.
- Divide mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into oval shapes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the remaining olive oil on top.
- Bake for 13 to 15 minutes.
- While they bake, stir together marinara sauce and tomato paste in a bowl.
- Once chicken patties have baked, remove them from the oven and spoon the marinara mixture on top. Sprinke with the parmesan cheese and the mozzarella, being careful to pile the cheese directly on top of the patties. Some of it will ooze off but you want as much as possible to stay put.
- Place back in the oven for 4 to 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Sprinkle with a little more parsley if desired.
