Directions
My Chicken Parmigiana, This is a family favorite meal and one I make for special occasions, such as birthday dinners. The cooking method of this particular version is different from the conventional chicken parmigiana recipes I always used to make. Once I tried this much easier and moister version, I never went back to the “old” method. I often use homemade sauce in this, but a good-quality bottled sauce, such as Classico or Barilla, is perfectly acceptable as well. I serve this chicken atop mounds of freshly cooked pasta with some additional heated sauce. I have often chosen to replace the mozzarella with thin slices of Provolone cheese. NOTE: Edited to add that pounding the chicken is not necessary with this method. Part of what is unique about this recipe is that even the meatier pieces of chicken get so moist & tender as it braises in the sauce., This is my favorite way to make Chicken Parm. Instead of shredded mozzarella though use slices of fresh mozzarella, and instead of parsley use chopped fresh basil. It makes a big, delish difference!, Super easy and super delicious recipe! used store-bought sauce to make it even easier and loved it.
