So I got to eat this with Dennis when he made it. This is an excellent dish and flavors were perfectly balanced. He really handled the balance of cheese and sauce perfectly, along with a crisp breading. Definitely worth making. If you don't have a press, you can always use a meat mallet. But I now want to buy a press because it works so easily.
If someone invited me for this meal, I wouldn’t be later than 431pm! The use of the tortilla press blew my mind. I presume everyone but me knew this for years but that is pretty revolutionary. Your careful treatment of the cutlets post-fry really heightened this. The pesto especially. Well done!
Thanks Eric. The use of the tortilla press saved some time and effort and every piece of chicken came out perfect. Why pound when you can press? -Dennis
Thanks for the comment. That tortilla press works really well. I even use it for pressing ground beef into hamburger patties. It's a useful little device. -Dennis
Dennis, your engineering background is showing. What a great way to flatten the chicken without having to beat it. You were right, yout guests did not show at 4:30. Keep making videos. I missed you when you stopped.
I didn’t know what I was gonna make for dinner the other night So I made this and turned it into a chicken parm sub , it came out really amazing . I’ve been watching your channel for a couple years now this is the second thing I’ve made off your channel . I made your burrito one time late night a long time ago and never forgot it 😂
Thanks for sharing your experience, Michael. I was saving the last piece for a chicken parm sandwich, but I woke up in the middle of the night hungry; so, I stood in the kitchen and ate it cold. -Dennis
Dennis, sir. I’m wandering how well the tortilla press works on a tuff piece of meat ( beef, pork)? I was under the impression that a mallet was to tenderize meat by breaking the connective tissues. I really like the idea of the press instead of a mallet. Have you ever tried this on a tuff piece of meat like round steak or pork loin? By the way your chicken parmesan looks delicious.
Hi Nick. I haven't tried it on tough cuts of meat. I think a mallet, especially those with tenderizing teeth, would work better. The chicken thigh, of course, is already very tender. Thanks for the question and the feedback. --Dennis
I'm thrilled with the idea of using a tortilla press this way! But Dennis, I'm absolutely hamfisted when it comes to taking out the bone from chicken thighs. Really wish I knew where I'm going wrong.
Last time I had Chicken Parmesan they poured tomato sauce all over the chicken and it was mushy and just awful. Your way the chicken still is crunchy with just a touch of tomato sounds awesome and I can’t wait to try your way!!!!
Thanks Evelyn. Putting extra marinara on the table for those who might want it works much better. I think you'll really enjoy this Chicken Parmesan. My friends did. -Dennis
I think the air fryer would bake it and overcook it. The chicken goes under the broiler for only a minute or two to lightly brown. Thanks for the question Jim. -Dennis
I used to watch all of your videos when I was in middle school, I check back now 8 years later love to see you still making videos❤️❤️
Welcome back, Drew! Glad you still like them. -Dennis

Thanks Eric (I know him as Eric). I know your refined sense of taste; so, when you say it was good I trust you. -Dennis
I'm a big fan of Chicken Parm. Thanks Dennis! My mouth is watering! 😋
Thanks Mea. I need to make these more often. They're really delicious. -Dennis
Sorry to hear via your blog that you've been under the weather! I hope you are on the mend.

Thanks Michael. It was delicious, and crunchy. -Dennis
Love the tortilla press idea!

Thanks 👍for the encouragement JC. I hope to be able to create videos for a while longer. -Dennis

That'd be great😁👍!

Mmmm......
Thanks Angela. -Dennis
It looks fantastic! Do you think it could be cooked in an air fryer?
