2. Cooking Directions

  1. Position oven rack in top position; preheat broiler.
  2. Combine flour, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Place chicken between 2 large pieces of plastic wrap. Pound with the smooth side of a meat mallet or a heavy saucepan until the chicken is an even 1/4-inch thickness. Dip the chicken in the flour mixture and turn to coat.
  3. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add spinach and cook, stirring often, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon oil to the pan. Add half the chicken and cook until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a large baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and chicken; transfer to the baking sheet.
  5. Top each piece of chicken with the wilted spinach, marinara sauce and Parmesan. Sprinkle with mozzarella. Broil until the cheese is melted and the chicken is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Serve on rolls.

Yield: 4 servings

3. Still Hungry?

You may disagree on whether the chicken parm sandwich should be known as a sub, hoagie or grinder, but who doesn't love this neighborhood-deli classic? We've added some spinach and done away with all the greasy breading to make it more healthy.

Notes:

Tip

Refrigerate leftover marinara sauce for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.

  • Worked like a charm

    janus_104 - October 16, 2007 06:08:49 AM PST
    I\'m a novice at cooking, and decided to give this a shot since my wife would be coming home late from work. To my surprise, everything went perfectly, and the sandwiches came out looking exactly like the picture! Not to mention, they\'re delicious -- the spinach, which I\'d originally considered leaving off, really adds to the flavor. Thanks for the tip!

  • Great

    Ahenfv - October 15, 2007 03:30:03 PM PST
    This recipe is great. I personally make mine without breading and frying, though. grilling the chicken with a bit of olive oil makes it taste great.

    As for the comment about the picture not showing a 1/4 inch thick chicken: A breaded and fried 1/4 inch thick chicken will tend to look a LOT thicker than the chicken itself.

  • This is Awesome...

    jmela8787 - February 11, 2009 09:03:57 AM PST
    Im a novice cooker and this meal came out exactly like the picture. It was so tasty. The chicken was not overly breaded or seasoned. This will be my "go-to" meal for entertaining.

  • Going for #2 tonight

    David A - February 3, 2009 02:19:01 PM PST
    We liked it so much (and it was VERY doable) that I\\'m making it again tonight. I include/exclude the toppings as my kids tastes dictate, but my wife and I love the whole thing.
