I’m a huge fan of chicken parmesan so this was on my must try list. It turned out pretty good, I don’t know if it’s because I used a simple grilled chicken or it was just missing something. I didn’t follow the sauce recipe I just did what I usually do as a sauce when I make chicken parmesan. I also added some seasoned bread crumbs on top to add to the flavor which helped. Maybe just strange because it’s not the original haha, but I would make it again.
