Beer Battered Chicken Seitan Strips

Ingredients:

• One batch of Chicken Style Seitan*, cut into ½ inch wide strips
• 2 Cups Unbleached white flour (you will not need all of this)
• 12 ounces of vegan beer (I used Mirror Pond)
• ½ tablespoon brown sugar
• ½ tablespoon agave nectar
• 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• ¼ teaspoon dried paprika
• Dash of freshly ground pepper
• 2-3 cups of oil per serving (I used a mix of canola and peanut)

Directions:

In a 2 quart saucepan, bring to oil to a medium temperature. Do not boil.

In a medium sized bowl, stir together 1 cup of the flour, agave, mustard, salt, paprika and pepper. Add more flour by the tablespoon full to your desired consistency – it should be similar to a pancake batter.

Slightly spacing them out so they don’t stick (not that that would be the end of the world), put 3-5 seitan strips into the oil. Keep an eye on them, and turn once while frying, about 1-2 minutes per side till a slightly golden color is achieved.

Remove from oil and place on paper towels. Sprinkle with additional sea salt, let cool at least a couple minutes and serve with desired dipping sauce(s).
