chicken parm sandos

one of Husband’s favorite foods is chicken parmesan, but ain’t nobody got time for that. these chicken parm sandwiches come together in less than 20 minutes and can be personalized for each family member. some of us (cough, Husband, cough) use a LOT of marinara sauce. others, such as myself, like extra cheese.

however you like yours, this quick and easy dinner will quickly be a family favorite. pair with salad or steamed broccoli to round out the meal.

this quick and easy take on chicken parmesan is filling and makes for a great weeknight meal.

Ingredients

chicken parm sandos

• Frozen, crispy chicken strips (Gardein has a great vegetarian version!)
• Mozzarella cheese (~2 cups but based on preference)
• Marinara sauce (~2 cups)
• Parmesan (about 1tbsp per sando)
• Kaiser roll or hoagie style bread (see notes below!), buttered

Instructions

1. bake chicken per directions or heat in microwave
2. while chicken is heating, warm marinara in sauce pan
3. toast buttered rolls, either in oven pre-heated to 350F for 5-7 minutes or in toaster oven until lightly brown
4. place heated chicken on toasted rolls, cover with desired amount of marinara
5. top with shredded cheese and place back in oven for 3-4 minutes to melt cheese (or microwave for about 30 seconds)
6. sprinkle with pepper flakes if desired and enjoy!

Notes

Use slider buns and chicken nuggets for an easy version that makes it easy to have accurate portions for the littles.

I prefer to use the oven because then I can put all the sandos back in to melt the cheese at the same time rather than individually in the microwave.
