I have been trying different vegetarian substitutes for meat. Most of them are quite awful until I tried this.
The "chicken" nuggets are frozen and quickly pan-fried in a little olive oil until brown and crispy on the outside.
Honestly... these things are delicious when combined with a sauce of some kind.
The first time I had them, I used the mandarin orange sauce that came in two packets in the box.
Simply add the sauce to the sauteed "chicken" and cook until bubbling and the "meat" is coated.
I had some frozen veggies that I quickly cooked in the microwave and then added to the "chicken" mixture.
This is good on it's own or would be good on top of rice or noodles.
I also bought these and prepared them in a pan and then added barbecue sauce for a bbq sandwich and they were very satisfying.
Do check out some of the other products available and let me know if you have tried a substitute protein that you find good.
