This is my go to meal when i have guests over instead of the usual roast Dinner and is always a hit and they can never believe how simple yet delicious it is. They say the way to a mans heart is through his stomach...very much the case for my Fiance of 5years. Chicken Parma was the first meal i cooked him and hes still hanging around and asks for it on a regular basis. I dont have a photo at this stage but i am working on getting one :)
