has to be one of my favourite dishes, seriously. Do you ever make one of your favourite dishes and it is so freaking good that you always say to yourself,   “why don’t I make this more often”?

Well this is my why-don’t-I-make-it-more-often recipes.I can remember whenever I went out with my friends in Canada for dinner,  Baked Chicken Parmigiano was usually what I ordered.

I adore it. Although in Canada it is usually served with pasta, I served it separate,  because in Italy pasta is considered a primo piatto (first plate) and Meat or Fish secondo piatto (second plate),  

although, yeah this would have been amazing served with Pasta. Maybe next time.

I also learned from my Mom that the best coating for pretty well anything are crushed crackers, instead of bread crumbs.

Although bread crumbs work well also. Remember though if you use salted crackers, cut back on the extra salt.
