Replace meat with this shredded jackfruit recipe. You can add the jackfruit to bowls, sandwiches, wraps, and salads.
- 1 (14-oz [400-g]) can jackfruit (in brine or water)
- 1 cup (240 ml) vegan BBQ sauce
- ¼ white or yellow onion sliced
- 3–4 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) avocado oil
- 1 tsp liquid smoke
- 1–2 tsp vegan grilled meat seasoning
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
Drain and rinse the jackfruit.
Thoroughly shred the jackfruit and remove the seeded buds. Pat the jackfruit dry with a paper towel and place in a medium bowl.
Add the BBQ sauce, onion, garlic, avocado oil, liquid smoke, grilled meat seasoning and smoked paprika.
Mix well then add to a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
Cook until fully heated through and the onion is tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
I recommend eating it on wheat slider buns with a bit of vegan coleslaw as pictured, or enjoy it in a wrap or bowl.
