Seitan makes for a pretty good chicken substitute. If you wanted to batter it to make it have the same texture, A super simple one is just 1 part flour and 2 parts water. Coat seitan bits before you fry it (after you cook it with the directions). You can lightly spice the batter with whatever you want to raise the flavor profile as well. Here’s the KFC 11 herbs and spices for inspiration but truthfully I’ve never tried it.
Thanks! I’ve been meaning to get into making seitan at home too, it’s just lower down on the list of priorities than the lentil tofu I’m dreaming about.
