Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Seitan
- 100 ml BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 4 Burger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato
- 0.5 Red onion
- 100 grams Pickles
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
Instructions
Slice the seitan into thick strips resembling brisket slices.
In a bowl, mix together barbecue sauce, smoked paprika, soy sauce, ground black pepper, and onion powder.
Add the seitan strips to the bowl and marinate for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Add olive oil to the pan.
Grill the marinated seitan strips for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they have a nice char and are heated through.
While the seitan is grilling, slice the tomato into 4 thick slices and thinly slice the red onion.
Cut the burger buns in half and lightly toast them on the grill for about 1 minute.
To assemble the burgers, start by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun.
Add a grilled seitan strip, followed by a slice of cheddar cheese, a slice of tomato, a few red onion rings, and pickles.
Finish by topping with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vegetarian brisket burgers!
