Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the plant-based chicken patties to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side or until they are golden and crisp.

Step 4

While the patties are cooking, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave.

Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the marinara sauce and stir well.

Step 6

Place the cooked patties on a baking sheet. Spoon a generous amount of marinara sauce over each patty.

Sprinkle mozzarella and parmesan cheese evenly over the top of each sauced patty.

Step 8

Transfer the baking sheet to your preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

While the patties are baking, split open the hoagie rolls and spread the inside with butter.

Step 10

Toast the buttered rolls in a skillet or on a grill until golden brown, about 3 minutes.

Step 11

Once the cheese is melted, remove the patties from the oven.

Step 12

Assemble the sandwiches by placing each patty in a toasted bun. Top each with a few fresh basil leaves.

Step 13

Serve immediately, and enjoy your Vegetarian Chicken Parmesan Sandwich.
