The Chicken Parmigiana Jaffle is a classic Australian sandwich recipe. It's a twist on the classic Italian dish, chicken parmesan. Instead of being oven-baked, the chicken, cheese, and tomato sauce are sandwiched between two slices of bread and cooked in a sandwich press. The result is a crispy and gooey treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or a snack to satisfy your cravings, the Chicken Parmigiana Jaffle is a great option.
