This much-loved recipe is a much lighter version of the classic recipe for Chicken Parmesan. So if you’re looking for a more traditional recipe, I do have a Skillet Chicken Parmesan recipe that’s really good. In this baked chicken parmesan recipe, the chicken is lightly coated with panko bread crumbs. And it’s baked instead of fried. The baked chicken is topped with tomato sauce, zucchini and a small amount of Parmesan cheese. It only bakes for 15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and the chicken is cooked through.
From a reader: “We just loved the spicy alternative flavor from the hot pepper flakes. It really adds to the regular version.” I love to get reader reviews. It really helps build the confidence that this recipe is a good one. It’s a kid friendly chicken dinner recipe too. Though the kiddos might not like the zucchini addition as much as the adults. Maybe add it on some and leave it off the others. Enjoy!
