Chicken Parmigiana Arrabiatta

Dinner, Grub. | August 10, 2011 | By

I LOVE Chicken Parmigiana. I know, I know, I’ve said before that I’m not a fan of chicken breast but seriously? When you bread it, fry it, cover it in delicious arrabiatta sauce and mozzarella; it makes my heart swoon. It’s kind of my standby plan when I’m not exactly sure what to do for dinner. It doesn’t take much time, it’s GREAT for leftovers and my family digs it. Nuff said.

Oh and because we all have busy lives, I’ve also included a shortcut version with store bought sauce.

Hubby’s note: For the record, anything is good when you fry it. Just ask the Chinese. (ducks feet anyone?) I don’t share my wife’s boredom for chicken. Especially when it’s on culinary steroids like this one is. This chicken is REALLY good. I can only guess that “Arrabiatta” is italian for “Kick-Ass”. I’m always the envy of my co-workers come lunch time as my delicious leftovers waft through the air. And this dish gets me more glances than usual.
