Sweet and Sour Seitan Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Sweet and Sour Seitan Recipe). This is a tasty vegetarian version of a Chinese classic. You won't even be able to tell it isn't chicken! Seitan is made from wheat gluten and is very high in protein and low in fat. I recommend using a chicken-style variety.
