Chicken Parmigiana varies all over the world, so let’s pit Australia against America and see which comes out best - Australia’s ham-laced, crispy parmi or America’s spaghetti-sided, juicy parm? What country’s recipe is your favourite parmigiana/parmesan?
Just a little note - you can now listen to my video in Spanish. Simply select the Spanish audio option in the settings while watching.

I also trained at Ryde to level 4 to be a chef.. I still reckon the Aussie flavour will win hands down, just change the sauce a fraction..

When I was in SA a few years back my Parmie was served with a side of creamy garlic sauce. I was very confused at first because I didn’t ask for it. But now I will never eat one without it again. That combined with the marinara is an unexpected perfect combination. People look at me like I’m crazy when I tell them until they order it for themselves and try the combination. Highly recommend haha

I really like the freshness of the pub salad. So long as it's a good one. I remember my 6'5" salad avoiding mate getting a stern talking to from the 6'4" and built like a Brick Shizenhausen German Chef at the Sentimental Bloke Hotel in Bulleen back in the day for not eating his salad. I think the chef was new, or was just bored and not getting appreciation for his craft as he'd cut little rose flowers out of the radishes. (We were there drinking and playing pool from 11am or so and it was pretty quiet). This chef had forearms bigger than my thighs and came out of the kitchen redder than the beetroot in the salad and angry as hell. Suffice to say my mate ate the salad.

Did your mate like the salad? I like a well-made salad with the usually somewhat greasy pub food. I used to go to a dive bar for lunch. It was across the street from a bunch of corporate offices so a lot of people in suits & dresses would come in for lunch. They had the absolute best conch fritters I've ever tasted. They served them with crunchy thick french fries & a fabulous, freshly made salad. Yummy. I even asked the waitperson to ask the chef how he made the conch fritters because no other restaurant came close to his. He would fry them until they were golden brown, & then put them in the oven on a low heat to cook them in the middle. Tremendous!

@@dee_dee_place He hates salad but the salad itself was actually really good as far as pub salads go. Used cut wedges of tomato not cherry tomato. Of course, this is something like 3 decades ago and that huge hotel, once an icon of the 70's and 80's Aussie pub rock scene is now long gone, to be "club" (not nightclub, think more posh hotel motel). The Waltzing Matilda, The Sentimental Bloke, all those big suburban pubs with big live music venues are pretty much dead. Dunno how the Hallam Hotel is going these days, it used to be another of those big venues. I'm in Brisbane now, and we've lost a lot of those big pubs here too. Places like the Alex Hills Hotel and the Calamvale were once massive. Now they're mostly convention centres instead. The only one I can think of really still doing that sort of stuff is the Eaton's Hill Hotel. It's sad but these days with drink driving laws, noise restrictions and local councils redirecting everything to billion dollar white elephant stadiums that they have to find a use for, the days of big suburban venues are dead.

I'm originally from Adelaide and there was a place in the western suburbs called "Schnitz and Wings" and they did plate hanger sized loaded schnitzels and parmis... examples were an entire meatlovers pizza worth of toppings on top; the "American" with american cheese, bacon and curly fries... and all sorts of other options. Absolutely incredible. 1 parmi could feed 2 people (came with an industrial amount of chips).

If you ever get a chance to visit Indianapolis in the USA, any pub there will have what they call a "tenderloin sandwich", which is a comically oversized pork schnitzel on a hilariously small bun (a standard hamburger bun, in fact.) That's what your "plate-hanger schnitzel" instantly made me think of.

It has been a while, so I'm not sure if the quality is the same, but it was great when I went last.

Keys to a good Aussie parma - Panko breadcrumbs - Triple smoked ham - Basic Aussie pub salad made with iceberg lettuce, cucumber, tomato, Spanish onion and some dressing - Good chips - Big enough plate so that the parma don't sit on the chips and they get soggy.

Years ago in Scarborough, Western Australia, My housemates and I had a sacred and long upheld tradition every Thursday night after Indoor Beach Volleyball, One of the team of four would stop at the Bottlo on the way home and grab a carton, and one of the other 3 would buy Spag Bog Chicken Parmis delivered from Tony's Spaghetti bar in Doubleview ( we took turns with the beers and food each week ) ..... The last Ali tray size before a family spog bog serving size was used to house these amazing creations, these things were massive, half filled with Spaghetti Bog, and a thick assed Chicken parmi on top, ( only with sandwich ham, but for $13 each, I was never complaining ) When they put the lid on at the shop and crimped the edges on the lid, sauce tended to push through it was that full. I swear they were half a kilo each delivered. Devoured with 3 or 4 beers, they were by far the best mid week meal and energy recharge with mates ever!!!! ( Widely known fact on those nights was whomever delivered it from the shop that night was " Tony " regardless of ethnicity, age or gender, and would be greeted as Tony at the door, and when saying goodbye :))

I grew up in a multi-ethnic anthracite coal town in the 1950s with plenty of WWII war brides from Germany, Poland, France, Japan, the PI, and Italy (Neapolitans to Sicilians), etc., to share their ethnic recipes. Each Roman Catholic Church took a weekend in summer to host a block party. One of my friend's mother came from Sicily and she gave me tips in cooking Italian/Sicilian food. Another friend's mama taught me to make Polish pierogi. My own family had French, Dutch, English, and Lithuanian recipes to share. It was great food with wonderful friends and their families.

Aussies make a distinction between British-style pub "chips" (thicker cut, his were definitely on the thicker side of chips), and American-style fries (sometimes called shoe-lace chips, but not often) Parmi definitely goes with thicker chips. You might get fries with a burger or hotdog, but with fish or chicken, definitely need the thicker, more fluffy chips.

It’s not traditional but putting cheese on first and then the tomato sauce prevents the chicken’s crispy crust from getting all soggy so quickly

The great thing about making food is that you can mix & match. Next time make the parma & serve it with pasta. That way you get the best of both worlds. Very Diplomatic, My Friend. Thanks for this wonderful video, Andy.

Parmigiana di Melanzane comes from the south of Italy, not Parma. Some believe that the name refers to the horizontal slats of the shutters on the windows, (to keep the sun out) shingled as you would layer the fried eggplant slices in a baking dish alongside the marinara sauce, the mozzarella and the basil.

Very nice video. My American variant uses pounded deboned chicken thights, fennel in the seasoning, panko as the breading. Order of operations is different: broil mozz directly on the fried chicken, then sauce, then grate copious parm on top. A fair amount of crushed red pepper in the sauce. The result is an improvement, I think - tastier chicken, with crunch preserved.

As an American who’s never had the Aussie version, I like the chips part, but the addition of the ham seems a tad odd. Not bad, just odd. Reminds me more of Chicken Cordon Bleu than a chicken parm but I bet it’s still good!

I’m a 2nd gen Italian American, and I love Italian American dishes like Chicken Parm, so I gave a little cheer when it “won”. 🎉 The only difference between Chef Andy’s version and my family’s recipe is that my family made the pasta sauce with dried Italian Seasoning herb mix, instead of just fresh basil, and sometimes put the same in the dredge for the chicken too (though I think that can be overpowering and I prefer the dredge plain, personally). I’m always fascinated by how recipes have been interpreted by, and evolved in, various different groups and areas based on what’s available, their own cultural backgrounds and influences, etc., so it was really cool to see a different version of this dish! I didn’t know the Australian version existed, but I’d totally be down to try it. We all win when there are even more delicious options to try!
