Recipe

Few dishes hit the soul quite like Chicken Parmesan — juicy chicken cutlets coated in crunchy breadcrumbs, smothered in bright marinara, and blanketed with bubbling, golden mozzarella and Parmesan. It’s the ultimate weeknight treat that feels like Sunday dinner at Nonna’s table.

The secret to that epic cheese pull? Fluffy, evenly shredded cheese that melts like a dream. The Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater makes it happen in seconds — safe, effortless, and perfectly uniform every time.

🍴Ingredients (Serves 4)

For the chicken

4 boneless chicken breasts (pounded even)

1 cup flour

2 eggs (beaten)

1½ cups panko breadcrumbs

½ cup Parmesan, finely shredded (Geedel fine blade)

1 tsp garlic powder + 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Salt & pepper

Olive oil for frying

For assembly

2 cups marinara sauce

8 oz fresh mozzarella, shredded or thinly sliced

Extra Parmesan for topping

Fresh basil

🍳Step-by-Step: Chicken Parmesan in 5 Easy Moves

1. Shred the Cheese with Geedel

Lock the hand crank cheese grater onto your counter with its suction base.

Insert the fine shred blade for Parmesan clouds.

Switch to coarse blade (or keep fine) and crank fresh mozzarella into fluffy shreds.

No scraped knuckles—just perfect cheese ready to melt!

2. Bread the Chicken

Season chicken → flour → egg → panko mixed with shredded Parmesan and herbs. Press gently so it sticks.

3. Crisp It Up

Shallow-fry in olive oil until golden on both sides. Drain on paper towels.

4. Sauce & Cheese Time

Spread a thin layer of marinara in a baking dish. Nestle in cutlets, spoon more sauce on top. Pile high with your shredded mozzarella and a generous snowfall of Parmesan.

5. Bake Until Bubbly

Broil or bake at 425°F until the cheese is golden and molten. Rest a minute, garnish with basil, and serve with spaghetti or crusty bread.

🧀Tips & Twists

Extra crispy? Mix more Geedel-shredded Parmesan into the panko.

Lighter? Air-fry or bake the cutlets.

Veggie boost? Slip Geedel-sliced zucchini under the cheese.

Make-ahead? Bread chicken earlier and shred cheese with Geedel ahead of time.
