  • Ingredients
  • ✓ 1-2 cloves garlic, finely diced
  • ✓ 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 cup red onion cut into 1⁄4” cubes; alternately, use a few tablespoons of 1⁄4” cubed shallot
  • ✓ 1⁄2 cup cubed (3/8”) bell pepper
  • ✓ 2 ounces (about 1⁄4 of a 8 oz box) seitan cut into pieces a little smaller than the mushroom; you can substitute 4 ounces tempeh, cut into 1⁄2” pieces and sauteed (beware that commercial seitan is almost certainly high-sodium; 2 ounces of seitan has typically over 300mg of sodium)
  • ✓ Few tablespoons favorite salsa OR 1T coconut aminos
  • ✓ (skip if using salsa) 1⁄4 t fresh ground black pepper
  • ✓ 1⁄2 t dried sage or 1 t chopped fresh rosemary needles
  • ✓ (optional) 1 stalk green onion cut into quarters or 2t fresh chives finely chopped
  • ✓ (optional) 1-2t organic lemon zest (start with an ideally organic lemon, rinsed, and, using a microplane grater or paring knife, carefully zest the colored outer layer into short strips maybe 1⁄2” long)
  • Instructions
  1. Put a stainless pan on the burner, turn it on to medium heat, wait till slightly warm (about 30 seconds on gas, less on induction, more on electric), then add mushrooms
  2. Avoid stirring for a minute and a half or so then flip
  3. Half a minute later add garlic, onion, and bell pepper; stir
  4. In a minute add seitan
  5. Cook, stirring 3 or 4 times, for about 2 minutes till mushroom is cooked and onion starting to caramelize
  6. Add salsa or coconut aminos and stir vigorously, trying to deglaze the pan
  7. If you didn’t use salsa, mix in black pepper
  8. Add sage or rosemary and mix
  9. If using green onion or chives, or if using zest, add to the top

Serves a side dish for 4
I love this dish with a salsa near the limit of my heat enjoyment. It’s a surprisingly
very different experience than using coconut aminos. If cooking for children, you
might use two pans and use coconut aminos for the children and salsa for those
who enjoy heat.
