What do all of these dishes have in common?

They are all foods that are attributed to ‘foreign cuisines’ but were actually created right here in the US. American has a habit of that….taking components of other cultures cuisines and putting our own spin on it. Americanization, if you will. Not saying it’s a good or bad thing, but it certainly has made for some interesting (and tasty!) foods over the years. Were you surprised about any of the dishes I listed above? The one that shocked me the most is the focus of today’s post. Classic Chicken Parm. Chicken Parmigiana. Chicken Parmesan. Whatever you call it, it’s a STAPLE at a Italian restaurants all over the country. The delicious combination of breaded chicken, warm flavorful tomato sauce, and gooey, melty cheese…it seems like an Italian classic, doesn’t it? But it ACTUALLY had its origins here in the states. It was popularized in Italian-American communities and quickly became conceived as an authentically Italian dish. Of course, it does take its inspiration from Italy though! The most direct inspiration is Eggplant Parmigiana where the eggplant is sliced thin (just like the chicken!) and coated with breadcrumbs, cheese, and sauce. Wherever the origin however, one this is for sure….it’s DELICIOUS. And with the help of Bob’s Red Mill, I’ve made it even easier for more people to enjoy by taking the classic recipe and making it gluten-free, grain-free, and KETO-friendly. You all know I usually do a ton of baking and breakfast making with Bob’s products, but so many of their amazing products lend themselves PERFECTLY to be used for savory dishes too. This recipe incorporates: Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour and Bob’s Red Mill Coconut Flour Funny enough, I first created  this recipe for and tested it out on my (ex) BF who is LOVES chicken parm. He said it was great! Too bad he’ll never have it made for him again. 🤣Womp womp. Now onto the KETO goodness… Print Low-carb, keto DELICIOUSNESS.
