Our Least Favorite Gluten-Free Menu Item From Maggiano's Is A Letdown In More Ways Than One - Tasting Table
"While the chicken in "The Grand" Chicken Parmesan was nicely tender, juicy, and had a pleasingly smoky taste thanks to being grilled, it was also woefully under-seasoned and, even worse, missing the crunchy crust that is so indicative of this dish. The mozzarella cheese was also lacking, with a mild flavor that only added to the blandness of the chicken."
"Maggiano's gluten-free "The Grand" Chicken Parmesan gets no complaints for its large portion size, which results in plenty of leftovers for those eager to enjoy it at home later, but many other customers agreed with our take on this classic dish. More specifically, reviews on Find Me Gluten Free complained that their Chicken Parmesan was improperly cooked. "The fusilli was a bit undercooked and the chicken overcooked and tough," one such person wrote."
Maggiano's offers an extensive gluten-free menu that includes salads, pastas, steak, and fish. The gluten-free version of "The Grand" Chicken Parmesan uses grilled chicken that is tender, juicy, and smoky but is under-seasoned and lacks the characteristic crunchy breaded crust. The mozzarella on the entrée is mild and adds little flavor. The chicken is not fried, removing expected textural contrast. The gluten-free fusilli pasta is plentiful, well-cooked, and pairs nicely with the sauce. Customer reviews praise large portions but report inconsistent cooking, undercooked pasta, overcooked chicken, and an artificial grill flavor in some cases.
