Ingredients
- 8 oz tempeh
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp coconut aminos or reduced-sodium tamari
- 2 tsp liquid smoke (optional)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper (optional)
- 2 tbsp vegetable broth
Method
- Steam the tempeh for 15-20 minutes, then let it cool.
- Slice into 1/4-inch strips.
- Whisk the garlic, coconut aminos, liquid smoke, maple syrup, onion powder, and pepper together for the marinade.
- Pour over the tempeh strips and marinate at least 2 hours, or overnight, flipping halfway.
- Heat the broth in a pan over medium heat, add the tempeh, and cook 2-3 minutes per side, until browned.
Tip: The longer it marinates, the deeper the flavour - overnight is best.
Highlights: 12g protein per 3-slice serving, and no oil needed to crisp it.
