Ingredients:

• 1½ cups uncooked rice or 200g dried noodles
• 4 cups steamed vegetables
• 1 box Deliciou Plant-Based Chicken
• 2 Tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tsp garlic, minced
• 2 Tbsp ketchup

Directions:

1. Cook noodles/rice according to package directions. Steam your choice of vegetables until tender. 
2. Meanwhile, combine Deliciou Plant-Based Chicken with a pinch of salt, 1 Tbsp sesame oil and 1 cup cold water and mix well. Shape into 4 thin patties then pan fry with 3 Tbsp oil for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from pan and slice into strips or bite-sized pieces.
