Description

This crispy vegan fried chicken is a delightful twist on the classic comfort food, offering flavor-packed crunch and juicy interior without any meat.


Ingredients

  • Textured vegetable protein (TVP) or other plant-based protein
  • Flour
  • Cornmeal
  • Plant-based milk
  • Mixed spices (to taste)
  • Vegetable oil or canola oil (for frying)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the vegan protein by marinating it in a seasoned liquid mix for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Bread the marinated pieces in a crunchy coating made from flour, cornmeal, and spices.
  3. Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C) for frying.
  4. Fry the coated pieces until golden brown and crispy, in batches if necessary.

Notes

For extra crispy results, dip in flour, then into a plant-based milk wash, and coat again with the seasoned flour. Maintain oil temperature to avoid soggy coating.
