Ingredients

  • 6 ounces tempeh
  • 2 cups red wine, any kind you would enjoy sipping
  • 1 clove garlic, finely minced
  • 4 bay leaves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation Instructions

Slice the tempeh through the middle to create thin, large sheets of tempeh. This will create more space for the tempeh to absorb the marinade. Cut in half and then in triangles.

Place the tempeh in a small dish. Pour the red wine, minced garlic, bay leaves, salt and pepper on top. Soak for at least 10 minutes, up to several hours.

When you are ready to sear, pour the olive oil in a cast iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Shake the tempeh pieces dry. As soon as the olive oil is shimmering, add the tempeh and sear on each side for 2-4 minutes until lightly golden.

Remove the tempeh from the skillet and pour in the remaining red wine marinade to deglaze the pan. Discard the bay leaves. Allow it to simmer until it is reduced into a syrupy sauce. Pour the sauce on top of the tempeh and serve.
