Creamy Lentil and Chickpea Stew with Grilled Tempeh
Red lentils and chickpeas simmered in a light coconut-turmeric broth, served with protein-packed grilled tempeh for a satisfying, smoky finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Tempeh
2.5 tablespoons Red Lentils
1/3 cup Chickpeas
2 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast
2.5 tablespoons Light Coconut Milk
1 cup Vegetable Broth
1 cup fresh Spinach
2 tablespoons diced Onion
1 clove Garlic
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Turmeric and Cumin
PREPARATION
Slice the tempeh into thin strips and lightly brush with olive oil and a pinch of cumin.
Heat a grill pan over medium heat and sear the tempeh strips until golden brown with visible grill marks.
In a separate medium pot, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic in two tablespoons of vegetable broth until translucent.
Add the dry red lentils, turmeric, and the remaining vegetable broth to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes until the lentils are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid.
Stir in the chickpeas, light coconut milk, and nutritional yeast, cooking for another 2 minutes until the stew is thick and creamy.
Fold in the fresh spinach and stir until just wilted from the heat.
Transfer the stew to a bowl and top with the warm grilled tempeh strips before serving.
