This is another recipe that seems like it just wouldn't taste good... but it does. In fact, it's really good! The garlic, almond butter, and almond milk combine to make a rich, voluptuous sauce to ladle over the "chicken" and blend of stir-fry vegetables. Quorn is a great substitute for chicken breast. Except for the appearance, I can't tell the difference when tasting. This is a flavorful low-calorie, low-carb meal. Try this dish, and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. :)
Ingredients:
- 1 Quorn breast
- 1 cup frozen mixed, stir-fry vegetables
- 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 2 tablespoons almond butter
- 1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
- garlic salt and pepper to taste
- green onions, if desired
Directions:
- Spritz a sauté pan with non-stick olive oil spray and heat on medium.
- Spoon minced garlic into pan, stirring periodically.
- Preheat the George Foreman Grill. (Quorn is hard to cook in a sauté pan, especially frozen, without it coming out dry. The George Foreman Grill cooks it perfectly so that it's got nice grill marks on the outside but retains its juiciness.)
- Place Quorn breast on grill and close lid.
- Warm almond butter in the microwave (1 to 2 minutes, depending on strength).
- Steam veggies in microwave.
- Whisk unsweetened vanilla almond milk and softened almond butter together with minced garlic in sauté pan.
- Keep whisking until thoroughly blended and thickened.
- Whisk seasoning in to taste.
- Place veggies on a plate, lay Quorn on top.
- Spoon sauce over everything and sprinkle with green onions if desired.
