Ingredients
Scale
- 1 block of firm tofu or store-bought vegan chicken slices
- 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast or vegan chicken seasoning (optional for extra flavor)
Instructions
- Start by draining the excess water from the tofu block or vegan chicken slices. If using tofu, press it gently to remove moisture, then cut into strips or desired shapes.
- Sprinkle the nutritional yeast or vegan chicken seasoning evenly over the tofu or slices. Toss gently to coat all sides thoroughly.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the coated tofu or vegan chicken slices. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Once cooked, serve your easy vegan chicken immediately. Pair it with salads, wraps, or pasta dishes. For added flavor, incorporate herbs, spices, or favorite sauces.
Notes
- Optional add-ons include fresh herbs, spices, or a splash of soy sauce for enhanced taste.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat by sautéing in a skillet or microwaving until warmed through.
- For a crispy texture, use an air fryer or oven for cooking instead of stovetop.
