Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces vegetarian chicken fillets
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 cup unsweetened plant-based milk
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 sliced into wedges lemon
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Pour the plant-based milk into another shallow dish.
Place the panko bread crumbs in a third shallow dish.
Dip each vegetarian chicken fillet first into the flour mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated.
Next, dip it into the plant-based milk, allowing any excess to drip off.
Finally, coat the fillet with panko bread crumbs, pressing lightly to ensure the crumbs adhere well.
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
Fry each coated fillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the escalope to the prepared baking tray.
Bake in the preheated oven for an additional 8-10 minutes to ensure they are heated through.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
