Delicious Chicken Parmesan Sandwiches topped with spicy marinara, creamy burrata, caramelized onions, and fresh chimichurri.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably Italian-style)
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup burrata cheese
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup olive oil (for chimichurri)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 hoagie rolls or sandwich buns
- Grated Parmesan cheese (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each breast in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a baking sheet.
- In a small saucepan, combine marinara sauce and red pepper flakes. Heat over low until warmed through.
- Top each chicken breast with a generous spoonful of marinara sauce and a piece of burrata cheese. Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- While the chicken is baking, melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes until caramelized.
- For the chimichurri, combine parsley, oregano, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix well.
- To assemble the sandwiches, place a piece of chicken on each hoagie roll, top with caramelized onions, and drizzle with chimichurri. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- For a crunchier texture, try using panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs.
- Add sliced jalapeños or banana peppers for an extra kick in the sandwich.
