Steps to Make Chicken Parmesan Texas Toast
- Preheat the oven to the temperature to bake the Texas toast. Line two half-sheet pans with parchment paper. Place the Texas toast on one of the prepared sheet pans and bake according to the package directions for the full baking time.
- When the Texas toast is done, remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire cooling rack. Adjust the oven temperature according to the baking directions for the chicken patties package.
- Place the chicken patties on the other prepared half-sheet pan. Bake according to the package directions, flipping the patties over halfway through baking.
- While the chicken patties are baking, place the tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, and garlic paste in a small saucepan. Stir everything together and heat over medium-high heat until the sauce bubbles. Reduce the temperature to low and keep warm until ready to use.
- When the chicken patties are done, remove them from the oven and adjust the temperature to 400°F. Place about a tablespoon of the prepared sauce on top of the baked Texas toast and spread it over the entire surface.
- Then, sprinkle about a teaspoon of grated parmesan cheese over the tomato sauce.
- Place a chicken patty on top of each prepared Texas toast slice.
- Top the chicken patties with another tablespoon of tomato sauce and a teaspoon of grated parmesan cheese.
- Top each Chicken Parmesan Texas Toast with a slice of Provolone cheese.

Frequently Asked Questions
If the pre-made chicken patties are small enough, they are perfect in this recipe. However, making your own is easy by cutting larger patties in half. You could also use store-bought chicken nuggets in this recipe.
I like to use my Oven-Baked Pasta Chips, but French fries, pasta, and even a simple side salad go well with this dish.
Leftovers, if any, can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for several days. Just reheat them in a 350°F oven for 20 minutes or until the chicken is heated.
Recipe Tips and Tricks
- Texas Toast: This recipe calls for thick-cut, high-quality Texas Toast, which provides a sturdy base for the chicken parm.
- Marinara Sauce: To make this recipe even easier, use store-bought pizza sauce instead of making your own.
