This is our cruelty-free version of a Southern favorite. Serve it with freshly baked biscuits and mashed potatoes for a complete meal.

Ingredients

1 tsp. Salt

1/2 tsp. Onion powder

1 tsp. Pepper

1 tsp. Garlic powder

2 cups Unbleached white flour

4 tbsp. Nutritional yeast (optional)

3 tbsp. Yellow mustard

1/2 cup Water

2 tbsp. Baking powder

1 lb. Mock chicken (try Worthington Chic-Ketts or White Wave wheat meat)

3 1/2 cups Vegetable oil

Preparation

• Mix together the salt, onion powder, pepper, garlic powder, flour, and nutritional yeast in a deep bowl.

• In a separate bowl, dilute the mustard with 1/2 cup water.

• Add 1/3 cup of the flour mixture to the mustard mixture and stir. Add the baking powder to the dry flour mixture and mix.

• Dip chunks of the mock chicken into the mustard batter, then drop each chunk into the flour mixture and coat with the desired amount of “crust.”

• Fry the chunks in hot oil on medium-high heat in a large skillet or deep fryer until crispy and golden brown, turning as needed.

Cook's Notes

I like using Quorn Chick N' Tenders, It makes popcorn "chicken".
