Description
This
is probably my favorite tempeh recipe. Besides going well with Gumbo
z'Herbes, this makes a great TLT sandwich. If you have time, steaming
the tempeh for about 15 minutes before marinating improves the flavor
and the absorption of the marinade.
Ingredients
- 2 T soy sauce
- 1 T agave nectar
- 1⁄2 t cider vinegar
- 1⁄2 t liquid smoke
- 2 T water
- 4 dr toasted sesame oil (optional)
- 1 t louisiana hot sauce
- 1 t minced garlic
- 1 pk tempeh, cut into 1/4-inch slices
Instructions
Mix
all marinade ingredients together in a bowl. Place the tempeh slices in
either a large ziplock bag or in a shallow baking dish. Pour the
marinade over the tempeh and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Stir or shake the bag gently from time to time to distribute the
marinade.
Drain the marinade from the tempeh and reserve it.
Spray or wipe a non-stick skillet with a little canola oil and place it
over medium-high heat. When it's hot, lay the tempeh in the skillet,
spoon a bit of the marinade over the top, and cook until marinade
evaporates and tempeh begins to brown. Sprinkle lightly with Cajun
seasoning (optional) and flip over. Sprinkle that side with seasoning
and cook until lightly toasted. Serve hot.
