Sweet & Sour Seitan
This will be dinner tonight. I’ll be increasing it to serve 14. This should serve a family of two…
- 1 lb Seitan cut into bite-sized bits
- 1 can Contadina or LaChoy Sweet and Sour Sauce. Or, to save money, make your own.
- 1 small onion cut in a large dice
- 1 green pepper cut in a large dice
- 1 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup Bisquick
- 3 tsp egg replacer powder
- 1 tsp salt
- Canola or Vegetable Oil for frying. Steamed rice for serving.
- Mix Bisquick, egg replacer and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add water and whisk until a smooth batter is formed. Add Seitan bits and stir to coat all evenly.
- Heat 1-2 inches of canola oil in a large skillet.
- Place battered Seitan in oil and fry until golden brown. (I usually need to do this in two or three batches.) Remove from oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Keep it warm.
- Drain oil from frying pan, reserving a small bit for the rest of the recipe.
- In the heated skillet, saute the onion and pepper dice until the pepper is soft.
- Add sweet and sour sauce and stir. Bring to a simmer and add the Seitan.
- Simmer for five minutes and serve over steamed rice.
