Preparation: 15 min or less

 

Cook time: 8 Hours

Serves: 4

 

 

 

Ingredients:

 

 

 

2 tbs. Olive Oil

 

4 Shallots, quartered

 

½ c. Dry White Wine

 

12 oz. Seitan or Tempeh, cut into ½ " slices

 

8 oz. Baby Carrots, halved lengthwise

 

8 oz. Small Red Potatoes, halved

 

8 oz. Green Beans, trimmed and cut into 1 " pieces

 

1 can (14.5 oz) can Diced Tomatoes, drained

 

1½ c. Vegetable stock

 

Salt

 

Black Pepper, freshly ground

 

1 tbs. Tarragon, finely chopped

 

 

 

Directions:

 

 

 

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add

the shallots, cover and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the

wine and cook for 2 minutes to reduce slightly. Transfer the shallot

mixture to a 4 – 6 quart slow cooker.

 

 

 

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the same skillet over medium

heat. Add the seitan or tempeh and cook until browned on both sides,

about 10 minutes, then add to the slow cooker along with the carrots,

potatoes, green beans, tomatoes, and stock; season with salt and pepper.

Stir to combine, cover, and cook on low for 8 hours.

 

 

 

Just before serving, stir in the tarragon.
