My husband and I love to order Chicken Parmigiana when we have dinner out, but since we've been cutting back on spending, I needed to learn how to make it at home. I found a basic recipe and changed it a bit. I've made it a couple times now and we both love it! Plus, I was able to make some changes to keep it a little healthier and reduce the garlic in it (stinkin allergies).
