You knew it was coming – a deliciously tender, fried up chicken cutlet layered with fantastic home-made tasting sauce and melted cheese over the top. Really, you can’t go wrong with comfort food like this – especially when you’re the one making it. Indulge yourself in chicken parmesan one of these weeknights and really see what you’ve been missing out on.
This dish is a little protein-heavy, so make sure that if you’re running high for the day on protein that you sub out the breasts for boneless chicken thighs. You can remove the skin from these and crisp them up yourself in the pan as a snack or as a side dish in itself.
As most of you know, with true homemade tomato sauce, you really have to pack a ton of olive oil into it and let the tomatoes soak it all up. We skip the part of hand-crushing the tomatoes and use a store-bought sauce that’s delicious on its own. Spice it up with some seasoning and oil, and we’ve got ourselves a sauce that tastes like it took all day to make. Little will your guests know, anyway. You can sit there, smiling away at the faces of your family chowing down on a meal that took you under an hour to make.
Bon appetit and enjoy! Let me know your favorite thing to do with chicken parm in the comments below!
