Hey y'all welcome back to my channel Be For Real. I am Brick. So I'm not even gonna play
no games with y'all. We are gonna hop right into the video. Ain't no need for no intro. Y'all know
what to do. If y'all are new be sure to subscribe. Hit that bell to turn those notifications on.
But I'm gonna go ahead and get right to the video because I know what y'all came here to do.
Okay I know. So we are gonna start off making our seitan. If you watched my previous videos
it's similar to what I've done before. I am going to be using nutritional yeast to start out about
three tablespoons. Be sure to click on the description box below because as always I
will have a full list of the ingredients in the description box below. So don't fret.
You know don't get worried. Don't be like oh she moving too fast. It's too quick. I can't keep up.
It's in the description box. I got you. I got you. This is what I am. I'm here for y'all.
So as y'all can see I am getting these seasonings right. We are seasoning every single portion of
this vegan chicken. We are not coming to play. So I am adding the Worcestershire. This is such
a difficult word for me to pronounce y'all. Like you know how you all have you all hit those words.
This is my word. So Worcestershire sauce. I'm adding two tablespoons. Two tablespoons of some
unsweetened cashew milk and about three fourths cup of some veggie broth. So I'm also going to
toss in two tablespoons of some soy sauce just to you know bring it all together. Get my whisk
flickly flick flick all over this little wet mixture that we have going on here. So make
sure you flick your wrist. Get everything well combined and as you guys know if you're familiar
with making seitan we are going to be using our vital wheat gluten today. I get mine off Amazon.
I will have it linked below so for those who can't find it in the store you can purchase it right on
Amazon. They are the plug and they give you a four pound bag just in case you making plenty of it
you know. So we are adding in about one and a half cups of this vital wheat gluten. This is what's
going to bind everything together. I am using gloves because I just didn't feel like you know
I feel like getting my hands dirty. Okay don't judge me. So I'm just going to go ahead and get
this all well combined. As you start to stir it in it's going to start to thicken up and it's
going to start to become dough like. So this is why I recommend using your hands over using like a
spoon or anything else. So as you can see it's going to start to get thick and become really
really dough like. So what I like to do is I like to break it in half and go ahead and knead each
part for about 30 seconds. So you know just show us some TLC right here. So I'm just going to go
ahead and knead that for about 30 seconds. Make sure everything is well combined. So we are going
to go ahead and skedaddle over to the stove. Here I have a pot of some boiling broth. I added in some
onions, some spices. I'll have all that linked in the description box. But you see that I'm piecing
off the seitan here. It does not have to be perfect and I would prefer you not make it perfect because
you know it'll give you more of that chicken like look. So I'm piecing it off. I'm making it about
palm size. I'm adding it to some boiling broth. I'm going to turn that down on a medium low.
Cover that and let that cook for about 20 minutes. All right class this is the part where you pay
attention. If you ain't been paying attention this entire video now is the time to pay attention
because nine times out of ten you're probably gonna be feeding this to somebody that is not vegan and
you need to show off. Okay all the seasonings you feel like that's going to make for a perfect
spectacular unforgettable breading is what needs to go in this flour. Okay I cannot stress this
enough. So I am putting everything that I feel like is going to be you know it's going you know
show off. Everything is going in this dough. Everything. So make sure you season this extremely
well. I will have exact measurements in the description box. If you would like to use mine
feel free. If you have your own breading that you love use that. It's your world. So I'm just going
to go ahead and do a nice stir on that to get everything well combined. Here I'm making our
wet mixture where I'm just using some hot sauce. We're going to be using some unsweetened cashew
milk and I'm also going to be placing in some Dijon mustard. You know just give our chicken a nice
kick and this is for my folks that like spicy food. So keep in mind this is a spicy chicken
sandwich. But are we not moving right along though? Like this is really quick. I'm telling you once
you get the hang of it it is really quick. So by this time our seitan is pretty much finished.
I'm just going to put it on a paper towel lined pan. You can use a dish towel. That's perfectly
fine. Here I'm just pressing out the excess liquid. Listen to me clearly. It is nothing worse
than some chicken that's not chicken that when you bite into that chicken is wet. Okay that is
a no no. That is absolutely not. Okay so please heed my words when I say make sure you press out
that excess liquid. It will save you a world of hurt. So for the culture I am going to be deep
frying this vegan chicken. I have my station set up. Wet, dry, seitan. You know got everything together.
So I'm going to be taking our seitan here. I'm going to be placing it in the hot sauce mixture
first. Then I'm going to go ahead and throw it into our flour. Then I'm going to toss it back
into our hot sauce mix. You know we need to double dip today to ensure the crispiness
of this chicken. Okay so be sure to double batter your seitan. Y'all don't kill me but
some way somehow the video of me actually frying the seitan got lost in the sauce and I really
apologize because it was something to see. But here we're just going to get our sandwich
assembled. I'm using the homestyle ranch by dia. Putting a dollop on both of the bread
slices here. I'm going to place some pickles on as well. If you know me you know I would have loaded
this up with lettuce tomato and all that. But we're gonna keep it simple today and lord have mercy.
Somebody come look at this. Are y'all seeing what I'm seeing right now? Like do y'all see what's
happening here? Like Popeye's who? Chipotle who? Wendy's I'm throwing y'all in there too. Wendy's who?
But here I'm just adding in some sriracha because y'all know I like a little extra spice.
And that is it y'all. This is complete. This is the end of the video. I hope you guys enjoyed. Be sure to give
