Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 
  • Vegan egg replacer equivalent to 4 eggs  
  • 1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs 
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder 
  • 2 vegan chicken cutlets (try Gardein Chick'n Scallopini or Quorn Chik'n Cutlets) 
  • Vegetable oil, for frying 
  • 2 cups marinara sauce 
  • Vegan mozzarella cheese shreds, to taste 
  • Vegan Parmesan cheese, for garnish 
  • Parsley, for garnish (optional) 

Instructions

  • Fill one mixing bowl with the flour, another with the vegan egg mixture, and a third with the bread crumbs and garlic powder.
  • Coat each vegan chicken cutlet in the flour and shake off any excess. Dip into the vegan egg mixture and then into the bread crumb mixture and set aside.
  • Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a deep skillet. Fry the breaded cutlets until golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate to drain.
  • Spread 1 cupful of the marinara sauce over the bottom of a baking dish. Lay the cutlets in the dish and top with the remaining sauce and vegan mozzarella, to taste, and bake at 350°F until the “cheese” is melted, about 10 minutes.
  • Garnish with the vegan Parmesan and parsley, if using, and serve immediately.

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?” READ MORE
