Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams vegan chicken strips
- 2 small shallots
- 0.25 cup fresh mint leaves
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 0.25 cup fresh Thai basil leaves
- 2 stalks spring onions
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon toasted rice powder
- 8 pieces lettuce leaves
- 1 tablespoon oil
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add vegan chicken strips to the skillet and cook until heated through and slightly crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally.
While the vegan chicken is cooking, thinly slice the shallots and chop the spring onions.
In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, and chili flakes. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well blended.
When the vegan chicken strips are ready, add them to the bowl with the dressing and toss well to coat.
Add the sliced shallots, spring onions, mint leaves, cilantro, Thai basil, and toasted rice powder to the bowl. Gently mix until everything is evenly distributed and coated in the dressing.
Serve the larb by scooping it into individual lettuce leaves to create cups or wraps.
Garnish with additional herbs and chili flakes if desired, and enjoy your Vegan Chicken Larb immediately.
