Instructions
- 1
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, sesame oil, vegetable broth, and cornstarch. Set aside.
- 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tempeh and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and slightly crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the tempeh from the skillet and set aside.
- 3
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Add the onion and bell pepper and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
- 4
Add the broccoli florets, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 5-7 minutes, until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
- 5
Return the cooked tempeh to the skillet. Give the prepared sauce a quick whisk again (as the cornstarch can settle) and pour it over the vegetables and tempeh. Stir well to coat everything.
- 6
Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until it has thickened to your desired consistency.
- 7
Serve immediately over cooked brown rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds and red pepper flakes, if desired. Enjoy your delicious and comforting plant-based meal!
Pro Tips
This recipe packs 25g of protein per serving. For even more protein, add a scoop of plant-based protein powder or extra beans.
High in fiber at 10g per serving, this dish will keep you full and satisfied for hours.
If you have a wok, use it. The high heat and shape create better texture and flavor development than a regular pan.
Taste as you go and adjust seasoning before serving. Plant-based dishes often benefit from a squeeze of lemon or a pinch of salt at the end.
