Chicken Parmigiana: An Australian Pub Classic
While its roots may be Italian, chicken parmigiana has firmly cemented itself as an iconic dish in Australian culinary culture.
More commonly known as a "parma" or " parmi," this hearty and delicious meal is a beloved staple on pub menus across the country.
The Australian take on chicken parmigiana typically features a schnitzel-style chicken breast, coated in breadcrumbs and fried until golden and crispy.
Then, it's generously topped with a rich tomato sauce (often referred to as "Napolitana sauce"), slices of ham (a distinctly Australian addition that differentiates it from its Italian cousin), and a generous layer of melted cheese, usually mozzarella.
