Steps:
- Make the sauce: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the ketchup, cherry cola, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, molasses, and Cajun seasoning. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, whisking occasionally, until thickened. Remove the pot from the heat.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Make the chicken: In a medium bowl, toss the chicken, yellow mustard, hot sauce, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper together until the chicken is fully coated.
- Add half of the cornstarch and coat one side of each piece of chicken. Add the remaining cornstarch and toss until the chicken is completely coated.
- Transfer the chicken to the air fryer tray and spray both sides with nonstick spray. Set the chicken in the air fryer and cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and the outside is crispy and golden brown.
- Meanwhile, make the slaw: Toss together the cabbage and carrot in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the white balsamic vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, agave syrup, lemon pepper, and celery seeds. Season with salt to taste. Pour about half of the dressing over the cabbage mixture and gently toss to coat. Slowly add more until the slaw is dressed to your liking. Store any leftover dressing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Squeeze some of the cherry cola barbecue sauce onto each bottom bun, then top with pickle chips, a piece of fried chicken, more barbecue sauce, slaw, and the top bun.
- Enjoy!
ULTIMATE CRISPY "CHICKEN" SANDWICH RECIPE BY TASTY
The crispy chicken sandwich craze gets a vegan makeover! The journey may be a long one, but the destination is well worth it. After you fry your "chicken" breasts to golden brown, serve up your sandwich on a toasted bun with colorful slaw and vegan aioli. Consider any carnivore fooled!

Steps:
- In a food processor, combine the cannellini beans and their liquid, the tofu, olive oil, worcestershire sauce, dissolved bouillon, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1½ teaspoons salt. Blend on high speed until smooth and homogenous.
- Add the vital wheat gluten in batches, blending between additions and scraping down the sides of the bowl to fully incorporate. The mixture should start coming together into a dough.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, until elastic and smooth. Cover with a towel and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Lightly sprinkle each piece with flour and roll out to flatten. Using your hands, shape each portion to resemble a chicken breast.
- Wrap each piece of "chicken" in parchment paper and transfer to a steamer pot. Steam for 80 minutes, flipping halfway through. The steaming process is important to ensure the vital wheat gluten is fully cooked.
- Towards the end of the steaming, prepare the brine: In a large, shallow dish, whisk together the oat milk, pickle juice, hot sauce, and 1 tablespoon salt.
- Remove the "chicken" from the steamer and discard the parchment paper. Transfer the warm "chicken" to the brine to marinate for 1-2 hours.
- Meanwhile, make the quick slaw: In a medium bowl, combine the cabbage, carrot, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and salt. Toss to combine well and set aside.
- Make the vegan aioli: In a small bowl, combine the vegan mayonnaise, garlic, mustard, hot sauce, and salt. Mix well to combine.
- Fill a large pot with the canola oil. Heat over medium-high heat until the oil reaches 350°F (180°C).
- While the oil heats, bread the "chicken": In a wide, shallow dish, mix together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, remaining 2 tablespoons garlic powder, remaining tablespoon onion powder, the paprika, cayenne, remaining tablespoon salt, and pepper. Mix together with a fork.
- Remove the "chicken"from the brine. Lightly coat in the flour mixture, then set aside.
- Add about ¼ cup (60 ml) of the brining liquid to the flour and mix with a fork to create some clumps, which will fry up to be crispy bits. Dip each floured "chicken" breast in the brine, making sure there are no dry spots. Coat each piece again in the clumpy flour mixture.
- Working 2 at a time, fry the "chicken" for 3-4 minutes, until deep golden brown and crispy. Transfer the "chicken" to a wire rack and season lightly with salt. Bring the oil temperature back to 350°F (180°C) between batches.
- To assemble, spread 1 tablespoon of aioli across the bottom of each toasted brioche bun. Top with pickles, a piece chicken, a dash of hot sauce, and about ½ cup (50g) slaw. Top with the top bun.
- Enjoy!
CHERRY COLA CHICKEN
I was playing around with different marinades and this seemed to go over well. This recipe can be baked in the oven if you don't want to brave the winter chill at the grill.

CHERRY CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH
This recipe is my version of a local restaurants sandwich. I've made this for myself using the frozen cooked chicken breasts and it has turned out very well. I also made a huge batch for a bridal shower. I mixed it in my Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer; it ended up as more of a paste consistency and I had to add more mayo and buttermilk but it was still raved about. For the shower I served it on Hawiian sweet dinner rolls.
