The recipe can also be gluten free by choosing Ian's Gluten-Free Panko breadcrumbs and one of King Arthur Flour's gluten-free options. Two packages of the Gardein Chick'n Scallopini will serve 4 if each person has two pieces, or 6-8 people if you have lighter eaters or more sides.

Ingredients
  • 2 packages Gardein Chick’n Scallopini
  • ¾ cup unbleached white flour (I like King Arthur Organic Unbleached All-Purpose Flour)
  • 1 -2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon organic cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • Fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 clove garlic, pressed
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce[1]
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup (or more) Ian’s Non-GMO Whole Wheat Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 1-2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 cup Nutiva Organic Coconut Oil (or use ½ cup Nutiva organic coconut oil and
  • ½ cup Nutiva organic sunflower and red palm oil)
Instructions
  1. Put the Gardein Chick’n Scaloppini in the fridge about an hour before you’re going to make the dish to make sure they are thawed just enough to separate easily.
  2. Get out three shallow bowls to make a "breading station." In the first one, mix the flour, Old Bay, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and black pepper.
  3. In the second bowl, break the eggs, add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper and beat lightly.
  4. In the third bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs and Old Bay.
  5. Heat the coconut oil (or the coconut, sunflower, and red palm oil combination) in a large skillet on medium heat. Don’t turn the heat high because you don’t want the oil to smoke.
  6. Dredge each scaloppini in the flour on both sides, and then dip in the eggs, and then into the panko breadcrumbs. Pan fry in the hot oil on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side) until crisp and golden brown.
  7. Let the fried scaloppini drain on a triple thickness of paper towels and serve. Mashed potatoes with chives, and oven roasted broccoli, cauliflower, and peppers complimented the panko crusted fried chick'n well.
  8. [1] Most commercially prepared Worcestershire sauce contains anchovies. If that bother syou, either omit the Worcestershire sauce or use a vegan version like Annie’s Natural Organic Worcestershire Sauce.
