Chicken Parmesan

I am a huge fan of Chicken Parmesan! The breaded chicken combined with marinara sauce and cheesy goodness is perfection if you ask me :)

Today, I am sharing my family’s version of the recipe and it is definitely one of the best I have ever had!

This recipe uses our recipe for Homemade Marinara Sauce and it really adds something special and unique as far as flavor goes.

The texture and flavor of the breading is wonderful. When all the flavors and ingredients come together, you have a picture-perfect meal.

This Baked Chicken Parmesan will be one you want to make over and over again! It is a recipe even my picky little eater thoroughly enjoyed!
