Thai seitan

It is not that easy to eat proteins when you don’t eat meat. However, this easy recipe with seitan has good proteins since it contains peanut butter. The recipe was inspired
 by a thai chicken recipe my roommate use to make when she was in a hurry. In this one, however, there are no chicken and more peanut butter. I also added the Catalina dressing to add a little spicy to the sauce.

This recipe is the first one I tried with seitan. It taste just like chicken since the creamy peanut butter sauce is really tasty. I usually serve it on rice with some veggies on the side. The recipe is for 2 but feel free to double everything if you want to make more or if you are very hungry.

Ingredients:
  • about 2 cups of pieces of seitan
  • 2/3 cup of peanut butter
  • 2/3 cup of tamari sauce (or soy sauce)
  • ½ cup of BBQ sauce
  • 2 tbs of Catalina dressing
  • sesame seeds

Mix the peanut butter, the tamari sauce, the BBQ sauce and the Catalina dressing together. In a non-stick pan, start to cook the seitan for 2 minutes and then add the sauce. Let them cook together at medium for about 10 minutes. Serve over basmati rice with a side of vegetables and sprinkle sesame seeds on the top.

I believe this recipe is perfect for everyone that never tasted seitan before.
