Wanted to eat a chicken Parmesan sub but didn't feel like spending the time cooking and breading chicken. So I opted to cut corners using frozen chicken patties and pre-prepared ingredients to make my life easier. Picked up the sub rolls and couldn't justify eating that many calories, so opted instead for sliced Italian bread and thin-sliced cheese. Turned out so surprisingly good, I thought I'd share. Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 2 frozens breaded chicken patties , such as Tyson®
  • 2 tablespoons garlic butter , or to taste
  • 4 slices Italian bread
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 0.5 teaspoons dried basil , or to taste
  • 1 pinch garlic salt , or to taste
  • 6 thins slices provolone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place chicken patties on a baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and crispy, about 20 minutes. Cut chicken patties in half lengthwise.

  3. 3

    Spread garlic butter onto 1 side of each bread slice.

  4. 4

    Mix marinara sauce, basil, and garlic salt together in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until warmed, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir.

  5. 5

    Place 1 bread slice, butter-side down, into a skillet; top with 2 slices provolone cheese, 1 tablespoon marinara sauce, 2 chicken patty halves, overlapped to cover bread, 2 tablespoons marinara sauce, 1 slice provolone cheese, and bread, butter-side up. Cook over medium heat until bread is crisp and cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over remaining marinara sauce and serve alongside each sandwich.
