Here's another Chorizo idea. As suggested - we could substitute fleshless

products so I edited this recipe with that in mind. I tested the original

recipe and can only guess that the sauce would go well with the alternatives.

Chicken and Chorizo in a Chile and Orange Sauce

 

Recipe By :Basic Flavorings: Chiles

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 pound potatoes

4 plum tomatoes

2 tablespoons olive oil

8 ounces baby onions

2 whole garlic cloves

4 servings chicken breast substitute

2 chorizo-tofu sausages

1 tablespoon hot Chile paste

or harissa

1 pinch chili powder

3 tablespoons sherry

1 large orange -- grated rind and juice

salt and pepper

TO SERVE:

cumin seed -- toasted

4 tablespoons sour cream

 

Peel the potatoes and cut into chunks (1-inch or less), then peel and chop the

tomatoes (1/2 " dice). Heat the oil in a large skillet, add the potatoes and

onions and saute for 10 minutes, then add the garlic and cook until golden.

 

Cut the chicken breasts into 2-inch pieces. Thickly (about 1/2 " ) slice the

chorizos, then stir into the potato and onion mixture. Stir in the tomatoes,

harissa, sherry, orange rind, and juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then

simmer for 15 minutes, until the chicken is tender. Sprinkle with toasted cumin

seeds and serve with a dollop of sour cream.

Pat & All:

There's a product by Boca Burgers called " Meatless Tenders " (frozen) that is

similar to grilled chicken breast. That sounds like something that could be

used in this recipe.
