About Chicken parmegiana
Chicken Parmesan, or Chicken Parmigiana, is a classic Italian-American dish featuring breaded chicken breast topped with marinara sauce, melted mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese. The chicken is pan-fried or baked to achieve a crispy exterior while remaining tender inside. Typically served with pasta or alongside a green salad, its origins trace back to Italian eggplant Parmigiana, adapted for American tastes. Nutritionally, Chicken Parmesan provides a good source of protein from the chicken and calcium from the cheese. However, it can be calorie-dense due to breading, frying, and cheese. Choosing baked preparation and adding whole-grain breadcrumbs can make it a healthier option. Additionally, marinara sauce offers vitamins from tomatoes and herbs. When enjoyed in moderation and paired with nutrient-rich sides, Chicken Parmesan can fit into a balanced diet while satisfying comfort-food cravings.
