Chicken Parmesan, or Chicken Parmigiana in the most authentic Italian lexicon, has woven its way into the American culinary quilt with tender, breaded chicken cutlets, rich marinara sauce, and blankets of melted mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Originally hailing from the southern parts of Italy, this dish traditionally used eggplant but found its new expression in the U.S. as a chicken entree. Over time, this Italian-American classic has become synonymous with comfort and flavor that appeals to all ages. Today we'll streamline the cooking process without sacrificing taste — by preparing a Sheet Pan Chicken Parmesan. It's perfect for those busy weeknights when you're looking to conjure a little Old World charm with far less fuss.
Serve your Sheet Pan Chicken Parmesan with a crisp green salad dressed in a balsamic vinaigrette and a side of garlic bread or over a bed of al dente spaghetti to truly marry the American spin with its Italian inspiration. And if you're looking to keep things on the lighter side, a side of steamed broccoli or roasted vegetables can be just as delightful.
