Eating Chicken.. 

hey guys, if you want to support the channel, please think about ordering a signed copy of my cook book from my website, my mum will ship them to you worldwide, www.gazoakleychef.com/shop/books/signedplantsonlykitchen/ thank you so much ❤ gaz

I saw this and immediately thought, "Gaz, you click-baiting mf" 😂

Knew it was gonna be chicken of the woods!

I swear everytime I watch a Gaz Oakly video I feel like I've slipped into a fairytale ✨️

"I wont take too much, I'll just take enough." That's how we should be thinking about everything. Respect, Gaz.

Haha!! He's so dramatic at the beginning😂😂😂 I adore him

King every time I've shared a recipe of yours with my friends their minds have been blown, thought I'd let you know!

Thank you for your great work! Also a thank you to Tom Kong - the videos are always so beautifully filmed and edited, with great attention to detail so one can feel the sincere passion that goes into the cooking and baking creations. Thank you, Gaz, for your honest and positive nature and the great recipes!

Your videos are so relaxing and peaceful. Love them. Thanks for what you do.

I am blessed to have an oak grove 10 min bike ride from me. Unlimited Chicken of the Woods. I harvest about 25kg and have enough for a whole year for the family! It's our favourite mushroom, even though we eat lots. So versatile!

It's lovely to see you cooking with so much love and joy! 🥰

How come that Netflix or any other streaming service hasn't already contacted you for a cooking show? Every clip is even better than the other and overjoys the viewer.

Good going Gaz, generously generating great gastronomy! And not a single chicken harmed in the making of this video :) xx

i didn't even break a sweat - I know you better 💚💚💚 and I've had chicken of the woods myself and know how amazing it is ~ !!!!!!! 😻😻😻❤💯

I haven’t watched your channel in awhile (I mean years) and I come back and it’s entirely “different” and whimsical and, well it’s always been whimsical and beautiful in a sense but this is… truly, beautiful. Thank you for making me smile for the first time today. Also? I knew what it really was, even after all these years your cooking skills are still unmatched. 😊 Much love.

You're living in paradise mate. It's like I am watching a live stream from eden. Those Schnitzels turned out perfect. Gotta try that mushroom at some point.

So many things that I love about your videos….Tom gets such a variety of beautiful shots, panoramic landscapes, close ups of the kitchen, cooking, garden. The music chosen is so excellent. And it’s fun, with a transcendent kind of feeling.

The DRAMA! 😂 well played, Gaz. I actually just started growing my own mushrooms (inspired by your channel)! I love to see this ❤

I love fried mushrooms! I used to hate mushrooms until I made coated fried oyster mushrooms and it’s the best thing ever 😮

I love that you said not to take everything when going to forage. 💚 Nothing will grow next year if we take it all. Also, our animal friends in the woods need what's growing there to survive, whereas for us it is just a luxury. 😘

I remember trying schnitzel in Germany years ago. But, Wow! This is interesting. I never heard of this type of mushroom. Chicken of the wood schnitzel looks amazing , nice and crunchy. What a beautiful garden Gaz! Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe.

Derek Sarno would be so proud

It is so refreshing to see how excited you get when finding some amazing mushrooms and then share with us how you will cook them. Everyone should at some point have the opportunity to watch you create your masterpieces in the kitchen and see how you savor each and every bite! Thanks for sharing with us Gaz your effervescent thrills at the simple pleasures that life have to offer us… 🙏

I did it with oyster mushroom. Mini-Schnitzel. What a great idea 💕💕💕💕

Mushrooms are just great overall. I also use oyster mushrooms to make calamari and shitake to make bacon. I will definitely try this recipe out when I do come across chicken of the woods.

My heart skipped.

Thank you for being sure and informed with your foraging decisions and identifications.

Absolutely brilliant seeing the full recipe/cooking techniques

Thank you for sharing your joy with us, Gaz. I’m grateful for you and the gifts you give to your followers.

“Wow”, is Right… again!! I can already feel the crunch.🎉 I Am inspired!⭐️💕💫

Your videos, Gaz, are so fun but also quite zen. Thanks for being you and for generously sharing with us ❤️

I knew you would not, better you would find something amazing like this 🌱

Gaz, you are truly amazing. Thanks for another great video.

Oh behave ... clickbait that doesn't disappoint, what a relief!

Oh Boi, you are such a tease! If you can find chicken-of-the-woods near you, people....harvest some. It's delish. Last time I ate it was in Texas, way back in the day...Gaz, you do rock!

Recently bought your cookbook and can’t wait to try one of your recipes. Videos are always great brother!

Hi Gaz I'm having a difficult day and you have lifted my spirits so high Thank You

That really looks delicious, im in awe of how talented you are as a chef, good on you Gaz you're killing it with these recipes 🥰

Just wanted to add that this turned out to be an incredibly soothing video for me at just the right time. Thanks so much for this.

Thank you so much for all of your videos! I think I found your channel in 2020 (not exactly sure)? But as a try-all omnivore (I've been vegan, raw vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, you name it), I've been overjoyed with your journey of vegan exploration. You always find something new to do and explore in your craft/ artistry. You can also make a lovely, vegan, chicken fettuccini with these mushrooms full of protein and flavor. Coconut cream is a brilliant base for bringing out the hint of sweetness and garlic-umami in the sauce when you add a kiss of lemon juice (and a teeny bit of sumac and nutmeg) to the garlic sauce. It's delectable! Cheers to you and all you do!

great Video as always Gaz, the food looks amazing :) i really hope that i can try this mushroom someday 🤞

My youngest daughter and I were talking about if we could eat anywhere in the world where would it be? We talked about famous chefs, Greece, Italy...We want to eat your food at your place! Truly heaven!

Your beginning really got me. I kept thinking, it couldn't be... Haha.😆 So glad to see this amazing recipe! 😅

You got me!!! I was all set to end your video.. I couldn't believe you would eat chicken!!! LOL

I can see how happy you are in this video! You made another incredible meal

The way you treat food and use it to create wholesome & creative dishes is mesmerizing.. I love watching your videos because it calms my mind & it gives me hope in term of people and their consciousness about our beautiful nature. Additionally, Tom's video shots + editing skills are on another level. So beautiful. Everything on this channel is art. And art soothes the soul. Thank you for sharing, you are a real inspiration 🤍✨ - Hi from Australia!

As a austrian myself I suggest you try the Schnitzel next time with lingonberry jam or if you don't have that cranberry jam. I didn't like it as a kid but now I can't imagine anything fitting better than that taste wise. Thank you for showing a meatless way of making a childhood dish that I loved :)

I love watching these videos on monday morning, great start of the week

Stunning kitchen, location and story-telling. I love your channel! Very nicely curated outfit while in the forest, particularly the brown jacket:)

You bring a smile to my lips and inspiration to my heart. Thanks for all you do.

Thank you for these videos. They help with my anxiety. Your energy is so calming

My parents have a chicken of the woods that pops up in their yard in late spring each year and it is the highlight of the season for sure. I share your joy ❤

😮‍💨 I’m glad you are still on the path, Brother. At beginning of video I was not judging … I was thinking, chicken! oh well, you do you Gaz … but once I knew it was mushrooms 🍄‍🟫🍄‍🟫I was so relieved!!! 😅

I so love your content and passion for everything you do- inspirational. Growing turmeric and ginger in cold climate ( winter) protective a bit. Not generally grown but did well - protected balcony.

You should be proud the garden is stunning 😍

Great video!! Thanks Gaz!

Gaz,every video of yours is a hymn to the nature. I'll make your combo for many more sorts of food possible,as I can't 😢eat mushrooms. Thanks for sharing your world

I love a good crunch. The dish looks so delicious. In the past I did breadcrumb extra firm tofu after sprinkling it with some chicken seasoning. That tasted really good too. Have a wonderful day and many blessings 🌱💛✨

I can't eat mushrooms but hats off to everyone who tries/eats/enjoys this recipe. I'd try it with aubergine. ❤

your kitchen looks amazing! you've got some great taste in that as well ;)

Oh my goodness, I'm so hungry looking at those and the dressing, I can almost taste it (almost lol) I will have to see if I can find some. Love your videos, they are better than listening to a meditation, thankyou 🙂

I’m like I know you lyin 😹😹😹

Gaz, it's so good to know that your chickens are safe and sound. Phew 😅

That crunch!

When I went to adirondack’s mountains in USA, we harvested some, and yes, they are unbelievably chickenny-textured, we had so many i ate for dayss, soo goood. They are a truly blessing of the woods

I nearly screamed when I saw the title. I couldnt believe my ears or eyes... but then thankfully, you cleared it all up.... and of course the mushroom is king.

Love you Gaz

I prefer to use 2 pairs of chopsticks for breading my food. No sticky stuff on my hands and it works really well

absolutely adore all the alliteration. Looks amazing and I've never had chicken of the woods mushroom before but felt like I could taste it from your descriptions. Don't forget about us with gluten allergies please - it's a tough world for us

Forget about the chicken, I love how peaceful you seem in the kitchen.

Must have been such a thrill to come across these! What a treat…

You had me going for a moment ! In my mental battle I had to believe that you had chicken of the woods.,our mushroom grower/collector has stopped. I am devastated. Enjoy your shrooms!

Never tried it, looks delicious! 😋 Perfect joke too, didn’t leave people to sweet too long 😂

Such a wholesome video!

In Poland we also have chicken mushrooms, but they don't grow on trees. They are smaller and we call them small chicken - kurka (plural - kurki), or pieprznik. I use them to make sauce for potatoes. I stew kurki with onion and smoked tofu in a pan. Then I add sour cream and lots of fresh dill ♥ Damn, I'm really hungry now 🤤

Amazing alliterations gorgeous Gaz 💚🌱

Didn’t doubt you for a second Gaz. I wish I could get my hands on this mushroom!!! ❤

Yuuuummy!! Love your videos Gaz!

Love your videos dear Gaz!! Greetings from Croatia!

I’ve got to say you had me worried there Gaz , too many vegans give up to make excuses for doing so . Glad to see you are still vegan .

I wonder how easy it would be to make "chucken of the woods" grow on logs... hmmm, Gaz, such a nice Chef to look up to in this beautiful world.

I just love seeing you enjoy life 🙏

Gaz, I just found you today. You’re the closest thing to perfect in my eyes. Hope someday I have some of your qualities that shine through these videos. Thank you for making them! I’m going to be making your chili/quinoa recipe this week!

Absolutely stunning video! Thank you my friend! Keep inspiring people!

Your schnitzel looks absolutely delicious. Some schnitzel recipes use a mushroom gravy and yours is just made of mushroom and it looks amazing. You could also do a fried chicken of the woods sandwich that would be delicious.

I almost booked a flight from the USA to tell you off in person!

Always wanted to try this. Can never find any!!

you not only cook delicius food, you also put a smile on my face every time thank you Gaz

you rock!!! Nature is sooo generous...

I almost didn’t want to watch this….so glad you didn’t backslide! ❤

Man’s out here just collecting free chicken of the woods 😅

Omg that first scene!!! My heart broke and I almost lost my shit simultaneously😅😅😅

Ha ha you're awesome Gaz. My daughter loves collecting and eating this. She's an expert on funghi. Thanks for a great video.

I knew it 😂😂😂 what a treat from nature, I'd love to try one day

GAZ!!!!!!! Even though I watched the last video and you were talking about this mushroom spot, this still terrified for a few seconds

Thank you GAZ!!!!🙂

The kitchen! Gorgeous ❤

A couple of years ago my wife found and harvested some Chicken of the Woods. I've been vegan for about a decade now but had certainly eaten my share of KFC in the past. She made KFC Secret Recipe Fried Chicken with Chicken of the Woods and it was hands down the best fried chicken I have ever had in my life. Some workers were around our house at the time and she gave some of them the fried Chicken of the Woods to try and most of them couldn't believe it wasn't chicken. Someone needs to grow this stuff in a controlled environment for mass consumption because it really is fantastic. We see it a lot where we live but you have to be careful and make sure it's not infested, rotten, or otherwise degraded. Usually if it's high up and light in color it's okay to collect up and use. Great video and, yes, you did scare the crap out of me for just a second.

This video is very satisfying to watch. I am in a happy place. ❣

I’m trying to focus on these amazing mushrooms as you dredge them in breadcrumbs, but your physique is also a blessing!🎉🫣👏🏼 love your videos, Gaz!😁🌿
