Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Vegan chicken pieces
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 slices Vegan cheese slices
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Vegan mayonnaise
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 1 medium, sliced Tomato
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Vegan butter
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add the vegan chicken pieces to the skillet and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Sauté for 5 minutes until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Spread 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon of vegan mayonnaise evenly on each slice of sourdough bread.
Layer each of two slices of bread with 1 slice of vegan cheese, half of the cooked vegan chicken pieces, half of the spinach leaves, a few tomato slices, and another slice of vegan cheese.
Top with the remaining slices of bread to form sandwiches.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegan butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and press down gently with a spatula.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet, slice each sandwich in half, and serve warm.
