jerked seitan


you can use this jamaican marinade on many different things: tempeh, tofu, portabella mushrooms. i, however, always prefer it on seitan. when marinated, the seitan is given a comforting yet exotic flavor. i suggest serving with mashed sweet potato, gazpacho or a corn chowder. enjoy!

jerk marinade:
1 bunch of green onion, chooped
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil mixed with 1/2 cup of water
a couple of chopped gloves of garlic
1 tbl allspice
-combine everything in a blender

1. marinade seitan cutlets (buy seitan or make it yourself) for at least an hour, but the longer the better.
2. grilling the seitan is best, but if that is not an option for you, spray a frying pan with non cook spray put cutlets in the pan and cook until brown on each side.

This looks so simple and yummy! I've never had jerk anything, so I'm gonna try this the next time I make seitan!
