Chicken Parm Subs Meal (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Chicken and Seasoning

01 - 4 thin flattened boneless skinless chicken breasts, hammered to ¼ inch thick
02 - A sprinkle of salt and pepper

→ Breading

03 - 1 cup regular flour for coating
04 - 2 big eggs, whisked up
05 - 2 cups panko crumbs
06 - 1 teaspoon powdered garlic
07 - 1 teaspoon powdered onion
08 - 1 teaspoon mixed Italian herbs

→ Cooking and Assembly

09 - 4 tablespoons olive oil
10 - 4 sandwich rolls, cut open
11 - 1 cup tomato sauce, with extra for dipping
12 - 8 pieces of mozzarella
13 - ¼ cup grated Parmesan
14 - Chopped fresh parsley for topping

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Turn your oven on to 400°F (200°C) and let it warm up.
02 - Dash some salt and pepper on your chicken. Roll each piece in flour, then dunk in the egg wash, and finally coat with your panko mix that's got the garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian herbs mixed in.
03 - Pour olive oil into a big pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until it turns golden on each side and isn't pink inside, about 4 minutes each side. Put them on paper towels when done.
04 - Lay out the split rolls on a baking tray. Smear some tomato sauce on the bottom half of each roll. Put a piece of fried chicken on top of the sauce. Add more sauce over the chicken. Top with two slices of mozzarella and shake some Parmesan over everything.
05 - Stick the tray in your hot oven and bake until all the cheese gets bubbly and melty, roughly 5-10 minutes.
06 - Sprinkle with parsley and serve them while they're hot. Put extra tomato sauce in a bowl for dipping.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Flatten your chicken pieces evenly so they cook fast and fit nicely in your sandwich.
02 - Give your rolls a quick toast first so they don't get mushy.
03 - Go for a chunky tomato sauce that won't make your sandwich all wet.
04 - You can bread and fry the chicken ahead of time to make things quicker.
05 - If you want to use an air fryer instead, cook at 375°F for 15–18 minutes, flip halfway and give a light spray of oil.
