This “chicken” recipe fooled two of our tasting panel, who thought it was real chicken.
You can use real chicken for this recipe, take out the plant chicken and replace it with a pound of regular chicken that’s been chopped into bite-sized pieces, thoroughly cooked and browned. Steps 1-3.
1. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Once it's warm, reduce the temperature to medium and melt the butter in the pan.
2. Add the plant chicken and sizzle for 6-7 minutes if frozen and 4-5 minutes if thawed. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Remove from heat.
3. Cut the plant chicken into bite-sized pieces.
4. Mix ALL the ingredients into a stockpot, including the plant chicken you just cooked.
5. Put temperature on high and bring to a boil.
6. Once it's boiling, reduce heat to simmer and continue cooking until all the flavors have blended, about 15 minutes. Then divide into 8 servings and freeze or enjoy.
Yield: 8 Servings
You can freeze individual portions for easy re-heating later.
Microwave on high for approximately 3-4 minutes. Keep the container open a little to allow steam to escape. You might need to stir it up at the 2 1/2 minute mark and put it back in the microwave.
