FAQs
❓ Is the Parmesan-Crusted Chicken a good low-carb choice?
Not really. The chicken is high in protein, but the Parmesan crust usually includes breadcrumbs, which adds carbs. For a lower-carb option, you may need to choose a different entrée or request plain grilled chicken if the restaurant allows it.
❓ What sides go well with this chicken entrée?
This dish comes with two sides. Popular choices include a fresh side salad, steamed broccoli, or a baked potato, all of which pair well with the flavors of the chicken.
❓ How is the Parmesan-Crusted Chicken cooked? Is it fried?
It is typically pan-seared or baked after being coated in a Parmesan and breadcrumb crust. This gives it a crispy, golden texture without deep-frying.
❓ Does this dish contain any seafood ingredients?
No. The Parmesan-Crusted Chicken is a non-seafood entrée and does not include fish or shellfish, making it a good option for guests who avoid seafood.
❓ Can I get the sauce on the side?
Yes. You can ask for the lemon-herb sauce and the tomato-basil topping to be served on the side. This helps you control the flavor, calories, and fat.
