Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 10-14 oz vegan chicken, (263g)
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups no-chicken broth, or vegetable, (354ml)
- 1 1/2 cups plain vegan creamer, or any plant milk, (354ml)
- 1/2 cup vegan mozzarella, or vegan parmesan, (60g)
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme, or 1 tsp dried
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes, oil-packed, chopped, (75g)
- 1 cup baby spinach, chopped, (30g)
- 3 tbsp fresh basil
Instructions
- Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add the oil. Once heated, add the vegan chicken. Sauté it for about 4 minutes, or until crispy ends have formed.
- Add the garlic and stir until it becomes fragrant, about 1 minute. Sprinkle in the flour and stir as it coats everything.
- Pour in a little broth and use it to deglaze the pan by scraping at the bits that are stuck on the bottom.
- Stir in the remaining broth, creamer, vegan cheese, seasoning, and sun-dried tomatoes. Lower the heat to medium-low.
- Let this cook and thicken for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the baby spinach and basil. Enjoy it with fresh vegetables such as salad, green beans, potatoes, over pasta, or with fresh slices of bread.
