Prep 15 min · Cook 10 min

In a bowl, whisk the vital wheat gluten with the garlic powder and onion powder. Add half of the chicken broth and stir until a stiff, rubbery dough forms. Knead for 1 minute, then thinly slice the dough into bite size strips.
Heat the sesame oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seitan strips in a single layer and cook for 4 minutes, flip, and cook for 3 minutes more until browned and firm. Remove from the pan. Done when browned and firm.
Add the broccoli and water to the same skillet. Cover and steam for 3 minutes until tender-crisp. Uncover, add the garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the seitan to the pan. Add the remaining broth and the coconut aminos. Stir constantly for 2 minutes until the liquid reduces and coats the broccoli and seitan. Season with salt and serve on a plate.
