Tempeh Fajitas

 

8 oz. block tempeh, any variety

4 TB fajita seasoning (reserve 2 TB for cooking)

2 TB vegetable oil

Oil for cooking

6 sweet bell peppers, a combination of green, yellow, orange, and red

2 medium sized yellow onions

1 jalapeño pepper

1 package Fajita wraps

 

Cut tempeh block in half lengthwise then slice into 1/4 to 1/2 inch wide

strips. Place in a lidded plastic

container, add two tablespoons of the vegetable oil and two tablespoons of

the fajita seasoning. Cover

container and turn to coat. Tempeh will be completely marinated and ready to

cook in approximately

35 minutes, but improves if marinated up to 6 to 8 hours.

 

Heat oil in a large skillet (preferably cast iron). Cook marinated tempeh

until golden brown, then add

roughly chopped seeded peppers and onions.

 

Turn up the heat while you stir fry to lock in flavors and cook for about 10

minutes or until peppers start

to blacken. If necessary add more oil while cooking and season with reserved

spice to taste.

 

Serve tempeh mixture tucked into warmed fajita wraps with salsa and

guacamole.

 

Serves: 4.
