Shortcut Chicken Parm Subs

What you need:
Tyson frozen breaded chicken patties
Jar of tomato sauce
Medium red onion
Garlic
Good quality olive oil
Balsamic vinegar
Fresh basil
Large french baguette or similar
Fresh Mozzarella
Grated parmesan-reggiano cheese
Salt, pepper, crushed red pepper.

1. Cook chicken patties on a foiled baking sheet at 400' for 20 minutes. With 2 minutes remaining, sprinkle a bit of parmesan over the patties.
2. In medium saucepan saute the red onion (thinly sliced) in a tablespoon of olive oil. When well cooked, add a dash of salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper. Mix in 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and let it cook out for a minute. Add the jar of tomato sauce and bring to a slow simmer.
3. In a small saucepan, head 1/4 cup of olive oil over low heat. When warm, add in 4 cloves of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh basil, dash of salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes but don't let the garlic brown.
4. Cut bread into individual serving sizes. Slice across but not all the way through. Spoon garlic mixture on both sides of the bread, wrap in foil and bake for 5-10 minutes until lightly crispy. (put bread in as chicken patties come out)
4. Assembly: remove bread from oven, slice chicken patties in half. Place patties on bread, top with scoops of tomato/onion sauce, layer with thick slices of mozzarella, top with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper. Enjoy!
