THE BEST SOUTHERN VEGAN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Click here for seiten cutlets recipe
• Whisk the 1 cup of flour, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried sage, ½ tsp garlic powder, and black pepper to taste until completely combined.
• Prepare the vegan egg according to the instructions on the package.
• Dredge the cutlets in the flour to coat, then the egg, then once again in the flour to coat.
• Pour two inches of vegetable oil (canola or corn oil is best) in a heavy fry pan. We prefer to use cast-iron. Heat the oil until it's between 350°F (176°C) and 375°F (190°C). We like to fry it at 375°F because the breading gets super crispy.
• The temperature of the oil will drop when you add the chicken, just keep it at the same heat as you started, don't increase the flame to get it to go back up.
• Carefully place the cutlets one by one in the oil. Don't crowd them, there should be some space between each one. If you have to cook in batches, allow the oil to go back to 350-375°F before frying the next batch.
• Fry for approximately 8 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Place on paper towel to drain excess oil.
• TO OVEN FRY
• Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C)
• Follow the preparation instructions, place the cutlets on a lightly oiled baking sheet and bake for approximately 10 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
• Enjoy!

• In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mustard and water. Add 1/3 cup of the flour mixture to the mustard mixture and combine well.
• Add baking powder to the flour mixture and combine well.
• Coat pieces of seitan or mock chicken with the mustard batter, then coat each piece with the dry flour mixture.
• Fry chunks of "chicken" in the oil on medium-high heat in a large skillet for 3-5 minutes, turning once until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel, serve with ketchup or barbeque sauce and enjoy!
• Tip: If your chunks are turning brown or black rather than a crispy golden brown, your oil is probably too hot! Reduce the heat a small amount and try again.
