Ingredients

Vegan Chicken Layer

  • 4 pieces Gardein Chick’n Scallopini
  • 4 slices Tofurky vegan ham
  • 2 slices Daiya vegan Swiss cheese, cut in half

Coating

  • 3 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Breading

  • 1 cup Just Egg
  • ½ cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • Oil spray for baking sheet

Sauce on the side

  • Vegan mayonnaise
  • Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Thaw Chick’n: Thaw the Gardein Chick’n Scallopini pieces in the refrigerator overnight to ensure even cooking.
  2. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 370°F and allow it to fully preheat while you prepare the sandwiches.
  3. Assemble Sandwiches: Layer one piece of vegan ham and half a slice of vegan Swiss cheese on one Gardein Chick’n. Top it with a second Chick’n piece to create a sandwich.
  4. Prepare Coating Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the vegan mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until smooth.
  5. Brush Sandwiches: Evenly brush both sides of each assembled Chick’n sandwich with the mayo-mustard mixture to add flavor and help the breading adhere.
  6. Dip in Just Egg: Fully dip each side of the coated Chick’n sandwich into the Just Egg liquid to coat thoroughly.
  7. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Roll the Just Egg-coated Chick’n sandwich in Panko breadcrumbs until evenly covered on all sides.
  8. Prepare for Baking: Place the breaded sandwiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Secure with toothpicks if necessary, and lightly spray each with cooking oil.
  9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip the sandwiches carefully, then bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  10. Serve: Serve the vegan cordon bleu hot with additional vegan mayo and Dijon mustard sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Ensure the Chick’n scallopini is fully thawed before assembly to prevent sogginess.
  • Use toothpicks to keep the sandwich layers intact during baking.
  • For a crispier crust, spray oil generously on all sides before baking.
  • Substitute vegan Swiss cheese and ham with your preferred vegan deli slices or cheeses.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in an oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
