Bacon Crusted Chicken Parmesan Recipe

I’ve come to one simple conclusion: bacon makes just about any recipe that much more delicious. Seriously. I’ve yet to try bacon with another ingredient where it doesn’t taste amazing and that winning streak doesn’t stop today. This Bacon Crusted Chicken Parmesan recipe has become a fast favorite with my family and one that has made it into our rotation of most-loved family meals.

One of the key ingredients in this recipe is a good quality pasta sauce. Ragu is an authentic Italian sauce with richer taste and aroma and richer texture than competitors because it’s made the traditional way and with the same standards set by Assunta Cantisano in 1937. Ragu lets you see, smell, and savor the longstanding tradition of fresh taste. Instead of using shortcuts, they follow Assunta’s secret family recipe slow-simmering vine-ripened tomatoes, garlic, and fragrant herbs. And my personal favorite parts of the Ragu sauce: no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, and no high fructose corn syrup.
