Sticky Blackened Tempeh
Modified from Healthy Happy Life.- Ingredients:
- 6 thick logs of tempeh, any variety, from one package tempeh
- 1 1/2 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp liquid smoke
- Fresh cracked black pepper to taste
Turn your pan to high and add in the oil. When hot, add in the tempeh logs and splash them with maple syrup and soy sauce. Cover with lid as the tempeh sizzles and steams for about 30 seconds. Remove lid. Flip tempeh. Allow all sides to get a black char from the heated maple and soy sauce mixture. When tempeh seems just about ready, add the liquid smoke evenly. Remove the tempeh from the pan and serve.
