  1. For the marinade: In a large bowl, combine the orange zest and juice, lime zest and juice, olive oil, tamari, hot sauce, ginger, garlic and herbs. Mix well to combine. Add the Beyond Meat Chicken-Free Strips or tofu to the marinade. Cover and let sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

Pat them dry with a paper towel and then add them to the skillet. Cook the strips, turning them once or twice, until they are browned on both sides, about 5 or 6 minutes. Garnish with scallions and serve with rice and peas.
