Guest guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Hi Sharon, Omnivore DH & I both like this recipe with FriChik. Peace, Diane 1 can Low Fat Worthington Fri-Chik (minus 2 patties), drained and sliced in irregular bits 6 oz bean sprouts 1 cup celery, sliced on the diagonal half a medium white or yellow onion cut in thin wedges 1 green onion, sliced lengthwise & cut in 1 inch segments small handful of: canned bamboo shoots canned water chestnuts canned straw mushrooms canned baby corn, chopped 1/2 tsp sugar 1/4 tsp salt (might not use all of this) Sauce: 1 Tbs cornstarch 1 cup veg chicken broth 2 Tbs veg oyster sauce 2 tsp tamari / light soy sauce 1 tsp sesame oil Mix sauce. Heat wok. Add a little bit of oil. Stir fry onions and celery for 1 minute. Add a pinch of the salt and 1 Tbs water; cover and cook 1 minute. Set aside. (I kept a mixing bowl by the wok to place each ingredient into) If you need more oil add a little. Stir fry the bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, straw mushrooms and baby corn together for 1 minute. Add 1 Tbs water, cover & cook 1 minute. Set aside. If you need more oil add a little. Stir fry bean sprouts with a pinch of salt 1 minute and set aside. If you need more oil add a little. Stir fry Fri-Chik slices and green onion 1 minute. Set aside. Turn heat to medium. Pour sauce mixture into wok, stirring until it begins to bubble and thicken. Add sugar. Add vegetables and Fri-Chik. Stir until everything is heated through. Serve on top crispy chow mein noodles. , Sharon Zakhour <sharon.zakhour wrote: > > It's been too long for me.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Thanks, Diane! I'm going to the store now to get the ingredients for this. How big a can do you use? I have the smaller (5pc) can, but I know it comes in larger sizes.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 It was the 12.5 oz can. A good amount for the 2 of us & I used the extra 2 pieces for lunch the next day I hope you like the recipe. I'm thinking it would be good for dinner too; I haven't made it in a while. Race you to the store lol! Peace, Diane , Sharon Zakhour <sharon.zakhour wrote: > > Thanks, Diane! I'm going to the store now to get the ingredients for > this. How big a can do you use?

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Oh man, I just realized I have another question! Just got back from the store, though I may have to go back and get another small can. But, " crispy chow mein noodles " . Is that something you cook? Or how does one go about getting those? :-) Sharon strayfeather1 wrote: > It was the 12.5 oz can.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 I'm just back too and they were out of FriChik waaaaah so I'll be using the Morningstar chik'n strips. The crispy chow mein noodles are premade. They come in a bag or can. This is the kind I get: http://www.lachoy.com/products/noodles.jsp but there are other brands (and I've just noticed these are by ConAgra *sighgrr*) You don't cook them; they're not like pasta-type noodles. I usually find them near those canned chow mein dinners. You could easily use rice or your favorite pasta or rice noodles too. This is good on rice.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 How does the chik'n strips work? I can't get FriChik where I live.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 I'll have to let you know tomorrow. DH went to a dinner at his church instead. The chikn strips should be fine tho'. I use them for fajitas all the time. For the chow mein I will probably chop them bite-size. Peace, Diane , " Sue " <kup wrote: > > How does the chik'n strips work?
