Skip canned tomatoes and serve these crispy, cheesy chicken cutlets with a fresh tomato-and-zucchini saute instead, a super-easy side that takes advantage of peak-season summer produce. For a healthy whole-grain swap, use white whole-wheat flour in place of all-purpose for breading the chicken and in any sweet or savory recipe. Make sure to position your oven rack in the middle of the oven, about 6 inches from the broiler, so the cutlets don’t cook too quickly. Round out the meal with a simple green salad and garlic-rubbed toasted bread slices.

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

  • 2 cloves garlic , thinly sliced
