Chicken Parmesan, also known as Chicken Parmigiana, is a classic Italian-American dish. It features breaded chicken breast that is pan-fried to golden perfection, topped with marinara sauce and melted mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, and often served over pasta or alongside a fresh salad. The dish combines tender protein with a rich tomato base, offering a satisfying balance of savory and tangy flavors. While it provides nutrients like protein, calcium, and vitamins from the cheese and tomato sauce, it can also be high in calories, saturated fat, and sodium due to the frying process and cheese content. For a lighter version, baked chicken and lower-fat cheese alternatives can be used. Chicken Parmesan is a comforting, hearty meal that's widely loved but best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
