Ingredients
- 8 ounces Seitan
- 1 can Black beans
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 0.5 Red onion
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 Corn tortillas
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 Avocado
- 1 Lime
- 0.5 cup Salsa (optional)
Instructions
Drain and rinse the black beans, and set them aside.
Finely mince the garlic and dice the red onion.
Slice the seitan into thin strips.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the red onion to the skillet and sauté for 3–4 minutes, until softened.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1 minute, until fragrant.
Stir in the cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, and cook for 30 seconds to toast the spices.
Add the seitan strips to the skillet and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and slightly crisp.
Add the black beans to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for 3–4 minutes, allowing the beans to warm through and absorb the flavors.
Warm the corn tortillas on a dry skillet or directly over a flame for a few seconds on each side.
To assemble the tacos, spoon the seitan and black bean mixture onto each tortilla.
