Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Plant-based chicken strips
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by heating olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the plant-based chicken strips to the skillet and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are heated through and slightly golden.
While the strips are cooking, prepare the honey mustard sauce. In a small bowl, combine honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth.
Once the plant-based chicken strips are cooked, pour the honey mustard sauce over them in the skillet.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for an additional 4-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the strips nicely.
Remove from heat and serve the vegetarian honey mustard 'chicken' warm, alongside your favorite sides such as steamed vegetables or rice.
