Tempeh Bacon

Step 1

Either dice or cut the tempeh into long strips, depending on how you will be using it. I like to add tempeh strips to sandwiches and diced peices to salads.

Step 2

Stir remaining ingredients together in medium bowl.

Step 3

Add the tempeh to the marinade and stir to coat.

Step 4

Heat up a heavy bottomed pan (such as cast iron) over medium heat.

Step 5

Pour the tempeh and marinade into the pan and heat, stirring for about 9-14 minutes, until all of the marinade has cooked off. The tempeh will take on a nice dark coating.

Step 6

Taste the tempeh. If you desire a stronger flavor, drizzle some more liquid smoke over it.

Step 7

Use immediately or cover and store in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
