FRICHIK WONTONS!



Frichik Wontons! image

I was so excited to find this Frichik recipe! Don't substitute anything else for it or it won't taste the same. Look for Worthington FriChik and McKay's Chicken-Style Seasoning in health food stores or some supermarkets. It comes in a can, and is a tender, juicy, healthful alternative to chicken, made from textured wheat gluten. These wontons take a little extra time, but to me they are worth it! From the "Choices - Quick and Healthy Cooking" cookbook.

Time 50m

Yield 32 wontons, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 1/2 ounces Worthington FriChik (I usually keep the juice from the can to make a vegetarian gravy)
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled and grated fine
1/2 cup water chestnut, chopped fine
1 teaspoon chicken-flavored vegetarian seasoning (I use McKay's Chicken-Style Seasoning)
32 wonton skins

Steps:

  • In food processor, chop well-drained FriChik until very fine. Place in a small mixing bowl.
  • In food processor or by hand; finely chop the onion and add to FriChik. Add the grated carrot, chopped water chestnuts, and McKay's Chicken-Style Seasoning. Mix well.
  • To assemble: Place wonton square on flat surface and put 1 teaspoon of filling in the center. Brush the edges of the wonton lightly with water. Fold the bottom corner up to meet the top corner, making a triangle, and seal edges. This shape is best for browning the wontons evenly if you are sauteing or baking them. For a facier design, pull the outside corners together and twist slightly.
  • To cook: Spray wontons and nonstick skillet with nonstick vegetable spray. Add wontons to skillet and cook on medium-high temperature, turning after 2-3 minutes when wontons are lightly browned and crunchy. Or put wontons sprayed with nonstick spray on cookie sheet also sprayed with nonstick vegetable spray and bake in 450 degree F oven until lightly browned, approximately 10 minutes per side.

HEAVENLY "CHICKEN" (FRICHIK) CASSEROLE



Heavenly

A great vegetarian comfort food that also makes a great holiday dish. This recipe is a favorite among many that have discovered the deliciously tasting Worthington FriChik. You can also use real chicken, mayonnaise, milk and even add some cheese if you're not vegetarian. Before becoming vegetarian I made a casserole very similar to this one regularly. I got this recipe from a good friend that got it from another friend's cookbook. Worthington FriChik has egg white in the ingredients and there is cream in the mushroom soup, so its not vegan. I've been trying to use as little dairy as possible so I use soy milk and vegenaise (the yummiest soy mayonnaise).
