This protein-rich vegetarian (vegan) recipe is from Cooking Light Magazine . Chill the tempeh well before slicing so it will be less apt to crumble. This recipe requires at least 3 hours of marinating, the longer the better. Serve with whole-grain burger buns, and whatever toppings you enjoy! Ingredients:
2 (8 ounce) packages soy tempeh |
3/4 cup water |
3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce |
2 teaspoons vegetable oil |
1 teaspoon grated peeled fresh ginger |
1 dash ground red pepper |
1 garlic clove, minced |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Split tempeh in half horizontally with a sharp knife; cut each piece in half crosswise. Place tempeh in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag. Combine water and next 5 ingredients (water through garlic) in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Pour over tempeh; seal bag. Marinate in refrigerator 3 hours to overnight.
2. Prepare grill.
3. Remove tempeh from marinade, reserving marinade. Place tempeh on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned, basting frequently with reserved marinade.
