Call it a parma, parmy or parmi, a chicken parmigiana is a pub staple beloved the nation over. What’s not to love? Crumbed, crisp and golden chicken breast loaded with a rich tomato sauce and melted cheese make for one satisfying combination. So, we’ve taken the good ol’ classic chicken parmigiana recipe and given it a bit of an upgrade so that it easily rivals your favourite pub parmy.
In our best chicken parmigiana recipe, there’s the reliable tomato sauce and cheese topping, with fior di latte used for extra creaminess. Plus, we’ve added roast fennel and olive to make this a chicken parmigiana that works just as well for an easy dinner as it does for a simple get-together.
This dish works equally well with thickly sliced eggplant in place of the chicken for a vegetarian parmigiana recipe.
