OK, this is one of those embarassing 'recipes' that people rave over, and yet I really don't do anything but throw a few things together...Another of those "almost fools the omni's" sort of thing...
Quick and Easy, Sweet and Sour 'Chicken' and Veggies
1 Package "Health is Wealth" chicken-free "nuggets" (or vegan nugget type thing of your choice)
1 red bell pepper- cut in chunks
1 green bell pepper - cut in chunks
2 plum tomatoes- cut in chunks
1/2 sweet onion - cut in chunks
1 12 oz. can pineapple tidbits, drained
1 cup Wing Yip Sweet and Sour Sauce (or your favorite bottled sweet-and-sour sauce)
Thaw the nuggets (leave package at room temperature a 1/2 hour or so. Cut the "nuggets" into quarters.Brown the nugget pieces in oil until crispy. Set aside.
Stir fry peppers and onion until tender-crisp.
Add tomatoes, pineapple and Sweet and Sour sauce.
Simmer for 5 - 10 min until sauce is hot.
If there doesn't seem to be enough sauce, add a little of the pineapple juice you drained from the can.
Add "chicken" chunks, simmer another 2- 3 minutes.
Serve over hot rice.
This also works great with cubes of browned tofu or tempeh but they usually take a bit longer to brown.
Wow, I love that recipe. So easy and yet when it all comes together sounds so yummy and just like you'd spent hours on it. I will definitely have to do this. Too cool!
