Sesame Tempeh and Lentil Stir-Fry
Sautéed tempeh and earthy lentils tossed in a savory ginger-garlic sauce, featuring a vibrant medley of crisp-tender vegetables and toasted sesame seeds.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tempeh
0.25 cup Cooked brown lentils
0.25 tsp Toasted sesame oil
1 cup Broccoli florets
0.5 cup Red bell pepper
1 tbsp Tamari
1 tsp Fresh ginger
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Rice vinegar
0.25 tsp Raw honey
0.5 tsp Toasted sesame seeds
1 stalk Green onion
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Steam the cubed tempeh for 10 minutes to remove bitterness and soften the texture for better sauce absorption.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, minced fresh ginger, minced garlic, rice vinegar, and raw honey until well combined.
Heat the toasted sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the steamed tempeh cubes to the skillet and sear until golden brown and crispy on all sides, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Toss in the broccoli florets and sliced red bell peppers, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until they are vibrant and crisp-tender.
Stir in the cooked brown lentils and pour the prepared ginger-garlic sauce over the mixture, tossing to coat everything evenly.
Season the stir-fry with sea salt and black pepper, then continue to cook for 2 more minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Remove from heat and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and thinly sliced green onions before serving warm.
