Gardein carries a variety of meat-free alternatives to satisfy vegetarians, vegans and even carnivores who like to occasionally partake in rituals like Meatless Mondays. In its line of imitation chicken products are these Teriyaki Chick’n Strips that come with a sweet sauce to mimic the flavors commonly used in Japanese cuisine.
As Gardein demonstrates in its 'Mastering Meatless' video, one of the best things about cooking with a meat-free product is that there’s no risk of under-cooking or any need to sanitize surfaces that have come in contact with the mock meat. Warmed up on the stove from frozen, it only takes a few minutes before this meat-free option is ready to serve. As for what to pair these Japanese-inspired Chick’n Strips with, Gardein suggests pad thai, quesadillas or salads.
