I cocked them for 12 minutes in salted water, then added breadcrumbs + spices and fried them in a pan.

I didn't eat real chicken for years, so I can't compare side-by-side, but I'd say that the texture is really close and the flavor resembles chicken in a way, yes.

That's where you went wrong. Your not supposed to cock them.

Then, why would I want a substitute for chicken in the first place?
