I definitely blanked and cut the chicken cutlets AFTER tenderizing. The recipe has always called for slicing and then tenderizing them. Sorry for the confusion lol, this was one of our first videos we filmed so I had a bit on my mind. :) Hope you guys enjoy this one!

Italian cooking is about the food but, we know it's really about family! Thank you!

I was about to leave a comment saying that I slice mine before tenderizing because it's easier to cut them in half when they're thicker than when they're thin, and it's also easier to tenderize them when they're thinner, but you already addressed that. I make mine the same way. Just found your channel—awesome!

My “new” favorite cooking channel. Such a comforting voice, not too much boring talk, if you know what I mean. Some people talk so much I totally lose interest by the time they “finally” start cooking 🙄. I’m learning a lot too… good explanation of great authentic Italian cooking that I would never have known, being Polish myself 😊

Next time I'm making Parm I'm using this recipe. It looks fab, can't wait to try for Sunday dinner.

Ahhh man, looks fantastic, you made my mouth water. I want some.

I did this tonight and it was amazing. The grated parm on top before baking was THE move. Oustanding.

Going back to NYC in two weeks to visit my parents (Mom's 75th bday). I might make this for her.

I'm in my 70s & always cooked from scratch. Your recipes add a whole new level of flavor compared to how I was taught. You've made me a better cook. 😀

Thank you. Here in Chi. we had Gonnella bread crumbs "back in the day."

I’m 21 and ik that I should know how to cook but honestly I wasn’t raised with parents who cooked, I’ve always lived off cereal and minute noodles. Thank you for this video, I cooked for my family and they loved it!

🔥🔥🔥 Videos and recipes just keep getting better!

I won't lie im a bit of a simple Palate addict.

This lady's recipes just work trust me.

I made this Chicken Parmesan Recipe tonight, and my family all recognise her dishes instantly.

Bethany jokes at times about always using Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, but in my opinion its what s makes the dish, but please don't use a cheap type.

I’m so happy I found your channel! I made your cherry tomato sauce and the tomato soup. I did it exactly as you explained. It came out wonderful. I’m gonna make the Bolognese sauce this week.

[montymonto]

This is becoming my favorite cooking channel. I compared this recipe with another very successful channel (not naming it!) and it is made with fresher and healthier ingredients and it even looks better. I'm trying it next week because I have to buy few things.

[stevefoster]

Love all the recipes. Looking at a pasta machine to make fresh paste to company the sauces

[kimpm]

I tried this!! Delicious. You can cut with your fork, so tender. I did buy the parmigian reggiano which made all, the difference. Thank you
