Many years ago, I used to order Pollo Saltado from a local peruvian restaurant and it was one of the best dishes I have ever tasted. Has anyone made this by substituting quorn pieces? What recipe did you follow?
Update:Quorn Pieces replace it quite well. Actually, 100% of the meat eaters I have served Quorn to did not know it wasn't chicken.
