Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz) package tempeh
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1/2 cup vegan barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Cut tempeh into small triangles. Add to a steamer basket and steam if desired.
- Add oil to a non-stick skillet and toss in the tempeh.
- Cook undisturbed over medium-high heat until the first side is golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Flip each piece and cook on the second side until golden brown.
- Turn off the heat and stir in your favorite barbecue sauce. Serve with roasted vegetables or in your favorite salad.
Notes
- Bitter tempeh? Just steam the tempeh for a few minutes in a steamer basket. After that, use your tempeh according to the recipe directions - no more bitterness!
- Serving suggestions: Add a large salad or roasted vegetables like this roasted sweet potatoes and broccoli recipe. My vegan broccoli macaroni and cheese recipe would also be a perfect side! Add it to a wrap with some lettuce, shredded carrots, pickled red onion, and my homemade vegan ranch dressing.
- Storage: store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
