Chicken parmesan, also known as chicken parmigiana, is a classic Italian-American dish that is a favorite for its crispy, flavorful exterior and tender, juicy interior. This dish is made by coating chicken breast or cutlets in breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese, then pan-frying them until golden brown. The chicken is then topped with tomato sauce, more Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese, and baked until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Chicken parmesan is typically served with a side of pasta, such as spaghetti or linguine, and a salad.

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large spaghetti squash
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 eggs, beaten
flour
italian bread crumb
marinara sauce
shredded mozzarella cheese
grated parmesan cheese
italian seasoning, to taste
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Scoop out the seeds - brush with oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Roast face down in a preheated oven at 375˚F (190˚C) for 35-40 minutes (until a fork can easily pierce the skin).

  • Place flour, beaten egg, and breadcrumbs into three separate bowls.
  • Coat each strip with flour, then egg, and then roll in bread crumbs.
  • Pour oil in a cast-iron skillet to come ¼ inch up the side. Heat the oil over medium-high heat.
  • Fry the chicken strips (in batches if necessary) until golden brown on all sides and cooked through. Transfer to paper towels and remove pan from heat.
  • Once the squash has finished roasting - remove from the oven and let it set for a few minutes before turing over and pulling at it with a fork.
  • Shred the inside of each squash, being careful not to poke through the skin.
  • Pour marinara sauce over shredded squash. Top with chicken strips, then more marinara, and finish with mozzarella and parmesan cheese, and a pinch of Italian seasoning.
  • Return to the oven to bake for 10-15 minutes until the cheese has melted.

CHICKEN PARM



Chicken Parm image

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h30m

Yield about 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, butterflied and pounded to 1/8-inch thick
2 teaspoons kosher salt
120 grams (1 cup) plain breadcrumbs
20 grams salt and vinegar potato chips, not kettle cooked or thick cut
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
70 grams (2/3 cup) all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 cup red sauce, divided, recipe follows
2 ounces low-moisture mozzarella, shredded
2 ounces Italian fontina, shredded
Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnishing
8 large garlic cloves, peeled
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 cup plus 1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided
4 anchovy filets
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Two 28-ounce cans peeled whole San Marzano tomatoes, drained
One 2-inch Parmesan rind

Steps:

  • Cut the butterflied and pounded breasts into 6 to 8 even pieces. Season with the salt on both sides and place on a rack set inside a sheet pan (technically we use "half" sheet pans for this). Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Combine the breadcrumbs, potato chips, oregano, parsley and garlic powder in a gallon zip-top bag and crush into a course meal.
  • Set up a breading station with three loaf pans: place the flour in the first pan, the beaten eggs in the second, and the breadcrumb mixture in the third. Set a clean wire rack inside a sheet pan to hold the breaded pieces.
  • Unwrap the chicken and blot well with paper towels then dredge the chicken first in the flour (shake off the excess), then dip in the beaten eggs (again, drain the excess), and finally coat with the breadcrumbs before placing on the rack.
  • Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and crank the broiler to high. Line a clean pan with paper towels and have it standing by.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in an 11-inch sauté pan over medium heat. When the butter foams, add half the breaded chicken to the pan, but don't overcrowd. Cook, undisturbed, until crisp and golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to the clean rack, wipe out the pan and repeat with the remaining butter, oil and chicken.
  • Spread 3/4 cup of the red sauce into the bottom of a a 9-by-13-inch broiler-safe baking dish or pan and broil until the sauce bubbles and begins to caramelize, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove the dish from the oven and arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer. Dot the chicken with the remaining red sauce, leaving bare spots to retain some crispy bits. Scatter the fontina and mozzarella over the sauce.
  • Return to the broiler until the cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown, about 1 minute to 1 minute and 30 seconds.
  • Garnish with chopped flat-leaf parsley.
  • Work the garlic, salt and 1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil together with a mortar and pestle until a paste forms.
  • Heat the remaining 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic paste and cook, stirring, until it begins to brown, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the anchovies and the red pepper flakes and cook until the anchovies begin to break down, about 1 minute. (I usually use the back of a wooden spoon to crush the anchovies.)
  • Add the tomatoes and break them up with the back of the spoon then submerge the Parmesan rind in the sauce. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, until the sauce is almost dry, about 1 hour.
  • Discard the Parmesan rind or feed it to the dog. Use the sauce immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge. (See Cook's Note.)

GRILLED CHICKEN PARM



Grilled Chicken Parm image

Chicken parm - crisp chicken served with tomato sauce, draped in mozzarella and anointed with grated Parmesan, served perhaps on a hero roll or beside a tangle of pasta - is among the finest dishes of the Italian diaspora in America. There is sweetness and salt to the dish, along with the base creaminess of cheese and the satisfying crunch of the chicken's crust. These combine, especially under a spray of red pepper flakes, to deliver immense satisfaction. This recipe, adapted from one the chef Justin Bazdarich uses at the Speedy Romeo restaurants in New York, moves the preparation of the dish to the grill, and delivers a dish that is smoke-scented and beautiful, with flavors that manage to be both delicate and robust.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 boneless, skin-on chicken thighs, about 2 1/2 pounds
1 tablespoon lemon zest
6 sprigs thyme, leaves only
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1/2 cup olive oil
1 28-ounce can whole San Marzano tomatoes
Kosher salt, to taste
1 medium-size bunch kale, stems removed and sliced into strips
Red-pepper flakes, to taste
8-10 basil leaves, roughly torn
8 ounces fresh mozzarella sliced thinly into 8 pieces
1/3 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken. Place the chicken skin-side down in a snug pan or platter with sides, then evenly apply the lemon zest, thyme leaves and 2/3 of the garlic and massage it into the flesh. Pour 1/4 cup of the olive oil over the chicken, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for a few hours or overnight, or leave on the countertop for an hour or so while you prepare the rest of the dish.
  • Make the tomato sauce. Heat broiler on high. Put the tomatoes into a food processor, and pulse a few times to break them up. Pour the chopped tomatoes into a small sheet pan with sides, then slide it directly under the broiler, and allow it to cook until much of the liquid has evaporated and the sauce has become thick, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly, then pour into a bowl.
  • Whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil into the tomatoes, along with a pinch of salt, to taste. Set aside.
  • Make the kale. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large sauté pan with a lid over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the remaining garlic, and cook until it turns fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add kale to the pan, turn the heat to high and add a splash of water. Use a spoon to toss the greens in the oil and water, then cover and cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, until the kale is soft and wilted, but still quite green. Remove cover, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until all the liquid has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove the kale from the pan, sprinkle with basil and set aside.
  • When you are ready to cook the chicken, build a fire in your grill, leaving one side free of coals. When coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds), you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn one burner to high, leaving the others off, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes.)
  • Put the thighs on the side of the grill without coals, skin-side down, cover the grill and cook until skin is crisp and the flesh has started to whiten, about 12 minutes. Turn the chicken pieces over, and top each one with a piece of mozzarella. Cover the grill again, and cook for an additional 8 minutes or so, or until the cheese has melted entirely and the chicken has cooked through. (Thighs are done when a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees.)
  • Ladle the tomato sauce onto a large platter, and top with the cooked kale. Nestle the chicken on top of the kale and sauce. Sprinkle the Parmesan, some red-pepper flakes and a little salt over the top of the chicken, and serve.

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 large egg
2 tablespoons prepared mustard (I used spicy brown mustard)
1/3 cup parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 small green pepper, seeded and sliced
fresh parsley (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Clean and wipe chicken breasts with damp paper towel.
  • Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
  • In a bowl or pie plate, beat together the egg and mustard.
  • Using a separate bowl mix together the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese, mixing well.
  • Dip each chicken breast into egg/mustard mixture, then roll in breadcrumb/cheese mixture and set on wax paper for approximately 10 minute to let coating set.

Make and share this Chicken Parm Pasta Toss (Rachael Ray) recipe from Food.com.

Provided by my3beachbabes

Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 45m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

salt
1 lb whole wheat penne
3 tablespoons evoo extra virgin olive oil
1 lb boneless chicken breast, chopped into bite-size pieces
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
ground black pepper
2 -3 garlic cloves, grated
1 large red onion, chopped
2 pints grape tomatoes
2 cups basil, chopped
3 cups arugula or 3 cups baby arugula, roughly chopped
1 cup shredded parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Fill a large pasta pot with water and place it over high heat. Once the water comes up to a boil, salt it and drop in the pasta. Cook the pasta to al dente according to package directions. Before draining the pasta, reserve a mugful of starchy cooking water, then drain and reserve.
  • While the water is coming up to a boil, place a large skillet over high heat with 3 turns of the pan of EVOO, about 3 tablespoons. Season the chicken pieces with the poultry seasoning, salt and pepper then add it to the preheated skillet. Cook the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Once the chicken is brown, add the garlic and onions to the pan, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cover the pan with a lid. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes burst open and begin to release their juices, about 5 minutes (if they haven't started to burst open by that time, mash them lightly with a potato masher or wooden spoon). Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
  • Add the drained pasta and reserved starchy cooking water (about 1 cup) to the skillet with the chicken and tomatoes, and toss over the heat until combined, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the basil, arugula, and cheese. Serve.
