15 Easy Sides to Serve with Chicken Parm
With a blanket of crisp breadcrumbs, plenty of sauce, and melted cheese, chicken Parmesan is a weeknight wonder. (Especially if you use our faster sheet pan method.) While the chicken bakes in the oven you’ve got 20 minutes or so to round out dinner with a side dish. Boiling a pot of water for some pasta is a common go-to, and while it’s easy and comforting, it never hurts to get some veggies on the plate.
Since the oven is already on, it’s easy enough to slide in a baking sheet for some roasted broccoli or Brussels sprouts. Take advantage of the open stovetop for a quick vegetable sauté, or go for a salad like a classic Caesar or try a version that takes inspiration from your favorite pizza joint.
These are 15 of our best chicken Parmesan sides to round out dinner.
