Chicken Parmigiana
Well I don't care what it's called. Apparently within Australian culinary circles (eyeroll) there is a big debate about whether this is a 'parmi' or a 'parma'. It is a Chicken Parmigiana, which indicates to me it should be called 'parmi' purely on spelling!
Either way, this old pub favourite can be found in menus across this wide brown land of ours and they have varying deliciousness. This version is completely without fault, gluten free (you're welcome!) and paired with the also oddly named Marinara Sauce, and some good old oven fries, you will be in pub heaven without the trip down the road.
Where's the beer? That should probably be your only question about this one!
