Preheat your oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together the vital wheat gluten, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, and half the salt. Pour in the water and stir until a stiff dough forms. Knead the dough for 2 minutes until it becomes firm and elastic.
Wrap the seitan dough tightly in foil. Place a steamer basket in a pot with an inch of water and bring to a boil. Place the foil-wrapped seitan in the basket, cover, and steam for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables.
Toss the diced potatoes with most of the olive oil, the remaining salt, and black pepper on a half-sheet pan. Roast for 15 minutes. Add the broccoli florets to the pan, toss with the remaining oil, and roast for 15 minutes more until the potatoes are golden and the broccoli is tender.
When the seitan is done steaming, carefully unwrap it. Place it on the sheet pan with the vegetables just before the pan comes out to brown the outside for 10 minutes. Slice the seitan roast into rounds before serving. Done when set and firm.
