Follow The Directions

01

Step

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add chopped onions and minced garlic, stirring occasionally until lightly browned, releasing their aromatic fragrance. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Increase the heat to medium, then introduce the chopped green bell pepper and seitan to the skillet, ensuring the seitan is evenly coated with the flavorful oil and aromatics. Season generously with salt and ground black pepper. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer gently, allowing the seitan to absorb the medley of flavors, enhancing its texture and taste. (35 minutes)

05

Step

In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in cold water to create a smooth slurry. Stir this mixture into the skillet, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the seitan mixture. (1 minute)

06

Step

Cook, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens to a luscious consistency, clinging beautifully to the seitan pieces. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Serve immediately, allowing the flavors to meld together on the palate, delivering a delightful culinary experience.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of soy sauce or tamari during the simmering process.
If you prefer a spicier kick, a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce would be a welcome addition.
Ensure not to overcook the seitan to maintain a nice chewy texture.
