Chicken Parmesan
Italian food is a staple in our weeknight dinner rotation. We love to make dishes from all over the globe! Some of our other favorites are Indian, Mexican, Asian, and Greek. This Chicken Parmesan (also called Chicken Parmigiana or the shortened “Chicken Parm”) is my favorite dish to serve when I want to serve something that seems fancy, but is actually pretty simple to make. My husband begs me to make it all the time. Your family will devour this meal and I bet they will also ask for seconds!
Is Chicken Parmesan Easy to Make?
Yes! This recipe calls for simple, easy to find ingredients. In fact, you probably already have some of them in your fridge and pantry. That’s what I love about this meal; it can be assembled easily without a lot of extra effort. But it tastes like you’ve slaved away for hours! You can also make this recipe even easier by using a pre-made sauce. While I love a homemade sauce, I know that sometimes quick and easy is the name of the game!
How to Make Homemade Sauce
If you do have the time to make a sauce, it is definitely worth it. Made with fresh tomatoes, onion, garlic and spices, this sauce is so much better than anything you get from a jar. It simmers for an hour, giving the spices and seasonings time to blend and also for your house to smell like heaven! First, start by sautéing onions and garlic in olive oil. Then, add tomatoes and spices and simmer.
What Do You Eat With Chicken Parmesan?
Obviously, we love to eat our Chicken Parmesan with pasta and homemade tomato sauce, as shown in the recipe below. However, if that isn’t your thing, there are other options! Sometimes we enjoy this dish with a side of our Old Spaghetti Factory’s Brown Butter and Mizithra Pasta. We’ve also served it with mashed potatoes, caesar salad, and/or steamed broccoli. Besides that, do you have any favorite sides for your Chicken Parmesan?
