Digressing slightly, but I recently discovered Marcella Hazan’s recipe for zucchini Parmesan when I was looking up ways to use the zucchini growing like wildfire in my garden. It might just be my new favorite zucchini recipe. I make it as a side dish, but vegetarians could absolutely enjoy it as a main course.

I have the cookbook but could only find one place on the internet with the recipe. It’s some guy’s blog so just scroll past all the inane stuff at the beginning.

Chicken Parm isn’t one of my fav chicken dishes, but done well it’s delightful.

I brown it on the stove, with an egg wash/Panko/mixed cheese, and finish in the oven with Rao’s marinara and mixed grated cheeses on top.

On noodles, it’s a family favorite. It’s good, even if it isn’t my personal favorite.

I love eggplant but a nice moist chicken Parm is superior.

Eggplant is divine.

You must eat at Olive Garden. I've had incredibly light eggplant parm. It can be so much lighter than chicken parm.

Chicken, eggplant only good sometimes, too easy to mess up and make soggy or bland. Chicken easy peasy.

I love eggplant Parmesan. I peel them, slice thin, and then weight it on paper towels for a hour or more to drain the water. Fries up nicely.

It's surprising to me how delicious eggplant parm can be if properly prepared, and I am a big carnivore. Either is fine.

NP here but Olive Garden's eggplant parm is so good, my favorite thing to get there (when in the Midwest and restaurants are limited).

Not an eggplant fan so I’ll go with chicken. I make it with the thin cutlets.

Have you ever tried Zucchini parmesan? That is an underrated meal. I make it weekly.
