Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Seitan
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tbsp Fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Maple syrup
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the marinade. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, minced garlic, soy sauce, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Place the seitan in the bowl with the marinade. Toss to coat each piece thoroughly, ensuring that the seitan absorbs the flavorful blend. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for a deeper flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Once the grill is ready, remove the seitan from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off back into the bowl. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting.
Grill the seitan for 8-10 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the seitan is heated through. Baste occasionally with the reserved marinade for added flavor.
Once cooked, remove the seitan from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. This helps the flavors settle and makes for a juicier bite.
Serve the grilled seitan hot, accompanied by your choice of vegan side dishes, such as grilled vegetables or a fresh garden salad. Enjoy your flavorful vegan grilled seitan!
