About Chicken parmigiana

Chicken Parmigiana is a classic Italian-American dish featuring breaded chicken breast, lightly fried until golden, then topped with marinara sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese, and baked to perfection. Originating from Italian influences, it combines comforting flavors with rich textures. The dish is often served with pasta or alongside vegetables to round out the meal. While high in protein due to the chicken, its breading and cheese contribute to a higher calorie and fat content. The marinara sauce provides antioxidants from tomatoes, but store-bought versions may contain added sugars and sodium. For a healthier twist, it can be baked rather than fried, or served with a side of greens instead of pasta. Chicken Parmigiana is a satisfying, indulgent favorite, offering a blend of savory flavors and the potential for customization to align with dietary needs.
