About Parmigiana

Parmigiana, an Italian comfort dish with roots in Southern Italy, is a flavorful layered casserole typically made with breaded and fried slices of eggplant, rich tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese. Variations may include chicken or veal instead of eggplant. This dish is baked to perfection, resulting in a golden, bubbly crust and tender interior. While Parmigiana provides protein and calcium from the cheese and essential nutrients from the tomato sauce and eggplant, it is also high in saturated fat and calories due to the frying process and cheese content. Opting for baked eggplant and reduced-fat cheese can make it a healthier choice without compromising flavor. As a hearty vegetarian option when prepared with eggplant, Parmigiana remains a beloved staple in Italian cuisine that balances indulgence and tradition.
