Chicken parmesan or chicken parmigiana (Italian: pollo alla parmigiana) is a dish that consists of breaded chicken breast covered in tomato sauce and mozzarella, Parmesan, or provolone.[1] A quantity of ham or bacon is sometimes added.[2][3]
The dish originated in the Italian diaspora in the United States during the early 20th century.[1][4][5][6] It has been speculated that the dish is based on a combination of the Italian parmigiana di melanzane, a dish using fried eggplant slices and tomato sauce, with a cotoletta, a breaded veal cutlet generally served without sauce or cheese in Italy.[6]
Chicken parmesan is included as the base of a number of different meals, including sandwiches[7] and pies.[8][9]
