Crispy Chicken Parmesan: Golden, Cheesy, Italian-American Heaven
There’s a reason Chicken Parmesan is on every red-sauce restaurant menu in America: juicy chicken cutlets, ultra-crispy coating, tangy marinara, and that ridiculous blanket of melted mozzarella and Parmesan that pulls for days. It’s comfort food that feels like a celebration.
The secret to restaurant-level cheese pull? Perfectly fluffy, uniform shreds that melt fast and even. The Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater makes it effortless in seconds.
🍗Ingredients (Serves 4)
For the chicken
4 boneless chicken breasts (pounded to ½-inch thickness)
Salt & pepper
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup grated Parmesan
1 tsp garlic powder + 1 tsp Italian seasoning
Olive oil for frying
For assembly
2 cups marinara sauce
8 oz fresh mozzarella
Extra Parmesan for topping
Fresh basil
🔥Step-by-Step: Crispy Chicken Parmesan
1. Bread the chicken
Season → flour → egg → panko mixed with ½ cup Geedel fine-shredded Parmesan. Press well for max crunch.
2. Fry golden
Shallow-fry 3–4 minutes per side until deep golden. Drain on paper towels.
3. Shred the cheese magic
Lock your cheese grater hand crank with the suction base.
Insert coarse blade → feed in cold mozzarella → crank for big, fluffy shreds (they melt like a dream).
Switch to fine blade → shred extra Parmesan for topping.
Done in seconds, zero scraped knuckles.
4. Assemble & melt
Spread marinara in a baking dish. Add cutlets → spoon more sauce → pile on shredded mozzarella + extra Parmesan. Broil 2–3 minutes until bubbly and spotted brown.
5. Serve & pull
Rest 5 minutes, garnish with basil. Serve over spaghetti or with garlic bread.
🍴Tips & Variations
Baked version → skip frying, bake breaded chicken 15 mins, then top & broil.
Sandwich style → stuff in a hoagie roll.
Make-ahead → shred cheese with Geedel the night before and store airtight.
