Amish Broasted Chicken
Ingredients:
– 1 block of extra-firm tofu, pressed and cut into small pieces
– 1 cup of plant-based milk (such as almond or soy milk)
– 1 cup of all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
– 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon of onion powder
– 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon of salt
– 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
– Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk and a pinch of salt.
2. In a separate shallow bowl, combine the flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
3. Dip each piece of tofu into the plant-based milk, allowing any excess to drip off.
4. Coat the tofu pieces in the seasoned flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure a thick and even coating.
5. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (180°C).
6. Carefully place the coated tofu pieces into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
7. Fry the tofu in batches for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
8. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried tofu to a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
9. Repeat the frying process with the remaining tofu pieces, making sure to monitor the oil temperature to maintain crispiness.
10. Once all the tofu is fried, serve your Vegan Amish Broasted Chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauces or sides. Enjoy!
