Life in Food City

My older brother Nick was my original business partner at our restaurant which opened in May of 1979. When we were kids he referred to our house, in the time between Thanksgiving and New Years as Food City. While we moved on from our parents home, we never left Food City. Here, you will find my world view of Life in Food City…

Deconstructed Chicken Parmigiana

I had some leftover roasted chicken which I deboned then cut into pieces. I also had some leftover red sauce in the fridge. I sauteed the chicken pieces in a little olive oil and then added the sauce. I simmer the chicken in the sauce at a low boil. I then added some bread crumbs (about an 1/8 of a cup for this plate) oregano, and mozzarella cheese. I stirred it until everything was fully incorporated, put it on some fresh fettuccine and topped it with freshly shredded parmesan cheese…

It was 30 minutes from start to finish and could easily be accomplished from scratch with a chicken breast and some tomato sauce. Give it a try and let me know what you think…
