Ingredients

  • One 8-oz. Package tempeh (soy-free if necessary)
  • ¼ cup liquid aminos (or gluten-free tamari; use co
  • ¼ cup low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon liquid smoke
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Line a plate with paper towels. Crumble the tempeh into small pieces and set aside.
  • Combine the liquid aminos, broth, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, the liquid smoke, maple syrup, cumin, and garlic powder in a cup. Stir until combined.
  • Heat the remaining olive oil in a large frying pan, preferably cast iron, over medium heat. Add the tempeh crumbles and toss to coat in oil. Cook for about 1 minute, then add the sauce. Cook, stirring every few minutes, until the liquid has been absorbed and the tempeh is tender with a crispy exterior.
  • Transfer the tempeh to the prepared plate to absorb any excess oil. Sprinkle with black pepper. Serve immediately. Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 4 to 5 days.
