Crispy Soy Strips
This is a go to recipe as it is versatile and delicious. Use these crispy-outside, tender-chewy-inside strips for topping a salad or main dish bowl, add to stir-fries or eat fresh from the oven when you are craving a crispy bite.
It is easy to marinate and coat a whole batch, refrigerate, and pull out the desired amount for a quick oven-fry.
Ingredients:
- 1 package soy curls (8 oz. dry)
- 1/3 cup low sodium tamari or soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- Oil spray (avocado or other)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 450 F.
- Rehydrate soy curls according to package directions.
- Squeeze all excess water from the soy curls, using your hands.
- Place soy curls in a bowl, pour over tamari sauce, and sprinkle with garlic powder.
- Squeeze soy curls in the bowl with your hands while turning to distribute the flavors.
- Sprinkle with cornstarch and toss to coat evenly.
- Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray lightly with oil spray.
- Place soy curls in an even layer, not overlapping. Spray with a thin coating of oil spray. (A full package will require two baking sheets.)
- If not using all, cover and refrigerate the unused portion.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, turning half-way through, until lightly browned and crispy on the edges.
