Ingredients:

Serving

16 oz tempeh , each cut crosswise into 4 pieces
1/4 cup tamari
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions:

Arrange a steamer basket in a large pot and fill with 1 inch of water; bring to a boil. Arrange tempeh in steamer basket, reduce heat to medium low, cover and steam for 10 minutes. Transfer tempeh to a large plate and set aside. When cool enough to handle, cut each piece in half horizontally through the middle. (Thinner pieces will absorb the marinade better.)
In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together tamari, maple syrup, garlic, ginger and pepper flakes. Arrange tempeh in dish in a single layer, turn to coat all over with marinade, cover and chill, flipping halfway through, for 2 hours.
Remove tempeh from marinade and very lightly spray with oil. Heat a large, well seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium high heat or preheat a grill to medium high heat. Cook tempeh, flipping once and brushing with any remaining marinade, until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
