The dish known as Parmegiana in Brazil, featuring breaded steak, tomato sauce, ham, and cheese, is believed to be an adaptation of Italian-American dishes, particularly eggplant parmesan, influenced by the large Italian immigrant population in Brazil during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The use of beef instead of eggplant is a local adaptation. The origins, despite the name, are not directly from Parma, Italy. It's an evolution of cultural exchange and ingredient availability.

Parmegiana offers a rich and savory flavor profile with a balance of textures, featuring crispy breaded steak, tangy tomato sauce, salty ham, and melted cheese.
The flavor profile is built upon the umami-richness of the beef, enhanced by the acidity of the tomato sauce. The breading adds a satisfying crunch, contrasting with the soft, melted cheese and the salty, cured ham. Common additions such as garlic, onions, and herbs in the tomato sauce further enhance the overall savory experience. The side of rice provides a neutral base, while the fries contribute a salty, crispy element.

Meat Selection
Use a tender cut of steak, like sirloin or top round, and pound it thin to ensure even cooking and tenderness.
Breadcrumb Quality
Use good-quality breadcrumbs, preferably homemade or panko breadcrumbs, for a crispier coating. Consider adding Parmesan cheese and herbs to the breadcrumb mixture for extra flavor.
Tomato Sauce Preparation
Make a flavorful tomato sauce from scratch using fresh tomatoes, garlic, onions, and herbs. Simmering the sauce for a longer period allows the flavors to meld together.
Cheese Melting
Use a cheese that melts well, such as mozzarella or provolone, for a gooey and satisfying topping. Bake the dish until the cheese is fully melted and slightly browned.
