Parmo | Traditional Fried Chicken Dish From Middlesbrough, England | TasteAtlas

Parmo

Parmo is a popular British dish consisting of a chicken cutlet that is deep-fried in breadcrumbs, covered in creamy sauce, and topped with anything from cheese and bacon to pepperoni and garlic sauce. The dish is traditionally served with a large portion of chips and a salad on the side.


It is believed that Parmo originated in a Middlesbrough restaurant in the 1950s. Although the name of the dish is derived from another dish, chicken Parmesan, it is typically topped with cheddar cheese, and never with parmesan.
