1. | Cut the seitan into 4-6 even pieces, and then flatten each piece slightly with a meat mallet or rolling pin. Season the seitan with salt and pepper on both sides. |
2. | In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour and a pinch of salt. In another shallow bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk and a pinch of salt. |
3. | In a third shallow bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt. |
4. | Dip each piece of seitan in the flour mixture, then in the plant-based milk mixture, and then in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the breadcrumbs onto the seitan to ensure a good coating. |
5. | Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the seitan to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy. |
6. | Once cooked, transfer the schnitzel to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. |
7. | Serve the schnitzel hot with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables. |
Tips:
- Seitan can be homemade or store-bought. If using store-bought, be sure to check the ingredients to ensure it's vegan.
- Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to flatten the seitan evenly, making sure it's not too thin or too thick.
- Adding spices to the breadcrumb mixture can add extra flavor and depth to the schnitzel.
- If you prefer a gluten-free version, try using gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes instead.
- Leftover schnitzel can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
