Chick'n Parmesan Sandwich

Someone requested I make a chick'n parmesan dish, so I made this! Feel free to put this over spaghetti (I just didn't have any or else I would have done that probably).
Chick'n Parmesan Sandwich


* Prep Time: 10 minutes
* Cook Time: 30 minutes
* Ingredients:
  • 2 Gardein Chick'n Scallopini*
  • 4 Ener-G egg replacers (follow box instructions)*
  • 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs*
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 can (28 oz.) crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • 1 tsp basil
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 3 tbsp vegan Parmesan*
  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 6 1/4" slices vegan mozzarella
  • 4 slices Italian bread, toasted
 * Recipe:
  1. Place 2 tbsp of olive oil in a medium skillet. Turn on medium heat.
  2. In a bowl, mixed the egg replacer ingredients together. Whisk until lumps are gone.
  3. In another bowl, put the Italian bread crumbs and 2 tbsp vegan Parmesan. Mix well.
  4. Dip the chick'n patties in the egg replacer making sure it is thoroughly covered. Dip into the Italian bread crumbs and cover completely. Repeat this process one more time.
  5. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  6. Place the breaded chick'n in the hot skillet and fry both sides until golden.
  7. While the chick'n is frying, in yet another bowl combine the crushed tomatoes, oregano, rosemary, basil, thyme, black pepper, sea salt, remaining vegan Parmesan and garlic slices. Mix well.
  8. At the bottom of a small Pyrex pan, add the remaining olive oil. Spread about 3 tbsp spoons of your tomato sauce over the top of the olive oil.
  9. Place the chick'n patties in the pan, top with the remaining tomato sauce.
  10. Finally, place the vegan mozzarella on the very top of the pan.
  11. Bake for 20 minutes.
  12. When done baking, serving as a sandwich with the Italian bread.
*  Note: Gardein is a great vegan brand that has these excellent Chick'n Scallopini's.If you haven't had this brand yet, you must! You can find it at many chain grocery's such as Jewel and Whole Foods. You can alternatively order it online. Ener-G is a type of egg replacer. It is my personal favorite. If you have another, please use that. A  lot of bread crumbs contain milk, so be sure to check! Lastly, for vegan Parmesan I used Galaxy brand.

I hate the way EnerG tastes, are there any alternatives you recommend? would a milk sub be just as effective? How about flax "eggs"?

Hi Kelly,

Try looking at these: http://vegweb.com/index.php?topic=7678.0

I would say from that list, the starch, flour, or baking powder would work here.
