Ingredients
Scale
- 1 block of firm tofu or store-bought vegan chicken strips
- 2 tablespoons of your favorite vegan seasoning or marinade (e.g., soy sauce, nutritional yeast, garlic powder)
Instructions
- Start by draining and pressing your tofu if using. Alternatively, select your preferred vegan chicken strips from the store for convenience.
- In a bowl, combine the vegan seasoning or marinade with your protein. Toss gently to ensure everything is evenly coated. For an extra flavor boost, consider adding garlic powder or smoked paprika.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add your seasoned vegan chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crispy. For faster results, try using the Ninja Air Fryer Pro Crisp & Roast.
Notes
- Store any leftover vegan chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, use an oven or air fryer to restore the crispiness.
- For longer storage, freezing is also an excellent option—just be sure to thaw before reheating.
