Here is how you make Chicken Fried Fake (seitan) Fingers:

Go ahead and make the entire recipe of seitan cutlets (again: http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=515048 ). We prefer to bag and refrigerate the [cutlets] before proceeding with making them into "fake fingers" because it produces a denser, meat-like result, but you can just allow them to cool (to touch) before carrying on. The prep and cooking times include making the cutlets.Note: any [cutlet] unused for fake fingers can be stored in an airtight container, refrigerated, for 3-4 days. They make excellent high protein snacks and, if cut into small pieces, an awesome stir-fry protein... mix with a little bbq sauce and have a chipped sandwich -- the possibilities are limitless, really.In a medium sized shallow bowl, combine flour(s) and black pepper; mix well. In a second bowl, whisk egg whites and milk together.Slice each cutlet into four strips. Dip each strip into egg/milk mixture, then dredge through flour mixture and lay on a dry plate.In a large skillet, being sure oil is hot enough (if the oil is too cool, more will seep into the batter), begin laying the fingers around the outer perimeter and fry until brown; then flip fingers and brown the other side.Cover a plate with a lint-free towel or layers of paper towel; remove fingers from skillet and lay on plate to absorb extra oil.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user RADIOISOTOPE.
