Directions:

1. Heat the avocado oil in a heavy pot over medium low heat. Gently cook garlic, onion and mushrooms until onions become clear. Add carrots, pepper and celery stirring often for 5-6 minutes. Add the chicken free strips, remove from heat and cover pot. (Veggies and “tricken” strips will continue to cook in the steam.)

2. In a separate small saucepan, mix all ingredients for sauce using a whisk and heat until boiling. Sauce should be about the consistency of a thick cheese sauce so add water ¼ cup at a time. Add the additional water if needed. Once ready, stir it into the “tricken” vegetable mix and heat until everything is hot. Serve over rice or noodles and garnish with peanuts. Feeds 4.

3. You can use different vegetables with this if desired ie: broccoli, spinach cauliflower, zucchini or any others you prefer. Also, the vegan chicken can be substituted with a firm tofu or tempeh.
