Chicken a`la King- Vegan

Chicken a`la King- Vegan

Cook in rice cooker,

       3       cups rice - white or brown

       6       cups water

       2       Tbsp.  McKay’s Chicken

                          Seasoning

        1       tsp. salt

Sauté:

            2      Tbsp. olive oil

         1       cup onion, chopped

         1       green or red pepper, chopped

         1       cup Vegetarian meat, chunked or 
                     separated into pieces
        ½      cup mushrooms, sliced

I use Loma Linda Tender Bits, Homemade gluten, Worthington Fri-Chik, Dragonfly Vegetarian Mock Duck or Chicken. There are all kinds of vegetarian meat options that can be used. Whichever one you like the best will work well. I switch it up a lot and just use any one I feel like at the time. Be sure to choose a vegan option if you are making this vegan. Some of these products might only be vegetarian. 

Sauce: Blend in blender until smooth.

         ½      cup cashews - raw

         1       cup water or garbanzo liquid

I use all of the liquid from the garbanzos and add enough water to make 1 cup. 

               ¼       tsp. salt
             3       Tbsp. McKay’s Chicken Seasoning

         ¾      tsp. garlic powder

         ½      Tbsp. onion powder

         1       Tbsp. corn starch

Add:

          2       cups water - add last and blend again

Pour over sauté mixture. Simmer until thickened.

Add:

           1   cup carrots, blanched

         3   cups frozen peas

         2   cups garbanzo beans

         ½   cup cashews, raw

Heat through and serve over prepared rice.

This meal really stands on its own. I might add a salad, but the recipe has so many good veggies in it that a salad would hardly be necessary.
