SWEET AND SOUR SEITAN

Sweet and Sour Seitan image

This is a tasty vegetarian version of a Chinese classic. You won't even be able to tell it isn't chicken! Seitan is made from wheat gluten and is very high in protein and low in fat. I recommend using a chicken-style variety.

PINEAPPLE SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

Pineapple Sweet and Sour Sauce image

I have tried a few different recipes for sweet and sour sauce from this site and from other cookbooks and none of them ever seemed to be quite right, so I experimented a few times and this is the one I liked the best. Now it's the only sauce I use for my sweet and sour pork or chicken.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

1 ½ lb chicken breast, chopped into bite-size pieces
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 cup cornstarch, plus 1 tbsp, divided
1 large egg
1 pineapple
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for frying
½ red bell pepper, chopped
½ green bell pepper, chopped
½ cup white onion, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ginger, minced
¼ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup sugar
3 tablespoons ketchup
white rice, cooked, for serving
scallion, sliced, for garnish
sesame seed, for garnish

Steps:

In a large bowl, combine the chicken with 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and 1 egg. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise and carefully cube the fruit in each half, leaving the outside of the pineapple intact. Scoop out the cubed pineapple and set aside.
Place the remaining cup of cornstarch in a separate large bowl and toss the marinated chicken pieces until liberally coated. Shake off excess.
Fill medium pot halfway with oil and heat until the oil reaches 350˚F (180°C).
Fry the chicken for 4-5 minutes, until the coating is golden brown and the chicken is cooked throughout. Transfer to a wire rack set over paper towels to drain.
To make the sauce, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a medium frying pan over a medium heat. Sauté the bell pepper and onion for 2-3 minutes, until softened.
Add the garlic and ginger, and cook until fragrant.
Add the vinegar, sugar, and ketchup, and stir. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Add the pineapple cubes and warm thorough.
Add the chicken to the frying pan and toss to coat with the sauce.
Scoop the mixture into the hollowed out pineapple along with a scoop of rice.
Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
Enjoy!
