Funzionalità Premium
Filé de Frango a Parmegiana offers a savory and satisfying combination of crispy fried chicken, tangy tomato sauce, and melted cheese. The textures contrast beautifully, with the crunch of the breading giving way to the tender chicken and soft, gooey cheese.
The dominant flavors are savory and rich. The breaded chicken provides a crispy, slightly salty base. The tomato sauce contributes acidity and sweetness, often with herbal notes from oregano or basil. The melted mozzarella cheese adds a creamy, milky richness and a satisfying stringy texture. The side dishes, rice and fries, offer starch and contribute to the overall filling nature of the meal. Some variations might include garlic or onion in the tomato sauce for added depth.

Chicken Preparation
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for even cooking. Ensure the breading adheres well by dredging in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs (often seasoned with herbs and spices).
Sauce Quality
Use a high-quality tomato sauce. Homemade is preferable, but a good store-bought sauce can be enhanced with fresh herbs, garlic, and a touch of sugar.
Cheese Selection
Mozzarella is the traditional choice, but other melting cheeses like provolone or a blend can add different flavor profiles. Use enough cheese to create a generous, gooey topping.
Baking Time
Don't overbake! The goal is to melt the cheese and heat the chicken through without drying it out. Keep an eye on it and remove it from the oven as soon as the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
