Craving Chicken Parmigiana and Pasta? Cut this checkered-tablecloth specialty down to size to make Slim Chicken Parmesan—here's how we did it.

Change is Good

Browning chicken in a little olive oil rather than breading and deep-frying cutlets means fewer carbs and less fat.
Whole wheat pasta, and a scaled-back portion size, add fiber and reel in runaway calories.
Fresh parsley, tomatoes and red wine create an authentic Italian flavor, so you need less mozzarella.
