Chicken Parmesan is a classic dish featuring tender chicken breast coated in crispy breadcrumbs, topped with melted mozzarella cheese and savory tomato sauce. The chicken is sautéed until golden brown, resulting in a juicy interior and crunchy exterior. The dish is finished with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese, adding a sharp and salty note to the rich, umami flavors.

For Chicken Parmesan, a sautéed dish with umami flavors from the chicken, tomato sauce, and cheeses, a medium-bodied Pinot Noir is an excellent pairing. The wine's bright acidity and red fruit notes complement the dish's savory elements, while its subtle earthy undertones match the Parmesan's nuttiness. Alternatively, a full-bodied Marsanne offers a rich texture and subtle sweetness that balances the dish's richness.
