SEITAN CHICKEN



Seitan Chicken image

It might look like a lot of steps, but this seitan chicken recipe is not hard to put together. Cooking the patties in foil makes for easy cleanup. If you are looking to save even more time, you can skip the dredging step and just fry the patties in oil. It may take a little bit longer to achieve a nice crust on the outside, but the result will still be crispy and golden brown. -Peggy Woodward, Taste of Home Senior Food Editor

  • Prepare the seitan properly: Before cooking, steam the seitan for 10-15 minutes to soften it. This will help it absorb the flavors of the marinade.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade for steamed white seitan is key to its flavor. Use a combination of soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, and other spices to create a marinade that is both savory and slightly sweet.
