Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Place the plant-based chicken patties on a baking sheet and bake them for 15 minutes until crispy and golden.
While the patties are baking, heat the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally until warm and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Brush the inside of each sub roll with this mixture.
Remove the baked patties from the oven and spoon a generous amount of marinara sauce over each patty.
Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses evenly over the sauced patties.
Return the patties to the oven and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Meanwhile, place the sub rolls in the oven for the last 5 minutes of the baking time to toast lightly.
Remove everything from the oven and assemble the subs by placing one cheese-topped patty into each sub roll.
If desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your delicious Vegetarian Chicken Parmesan Subs.
