This recipe for grilled tempeh is marinated in the best saucy spice blend. Combine that with the natural smoky allure of grilling, and this tempeh is a can’t-lose situation. Stovetop cooking instructions are shared too.

The Best Marinated and Grilled Tempeh Recipe

coriander

garlic powder

onion powder

cumin

paprika

chili powder

oregano

cayenne pepper

8 spice blend

balsamic vinegar

filtered water

heat-tolerant oil,

lemon juice

gluten-free tamari soy sauce

agave nectar or maple syrup

sea salt and ground black pepper,

Make the 8-spice blend: in a medium bowl, combine coriander, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, paprika, chili powder, oregano, and cayenne pepper. Whisk to combine and set aside.

Prepare the tempeh. Cover the bottom of a medium saucepan with about 2 inches of water. Set the saucepan, covered, over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, arrange the tempeh blocks in a steamer basket. Set the steamer basket in the saucepan and lose the lid. Steam the tempeh for 10 minutes.

While tempeh is steaming, make the marinade. In an upright blender combine 2 tablespoons of the 8-spice blend, balsamic vinegar, water, oil, lemon juice, tamari, agave nectar, salt, and pepper. Blend on high until completely emulsified, about 15 seconds.

Arrange the steamed tempeh in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the tempeh, making sure that as much tempeh as possible is exposed to the marinade. Cover the tempeh and marinate for at least 1 hour (or up to 8 hours in the fridge), turning and flipping over the pieces at the halfway point.

Once tempeh is sufficiently marinated, preheat your grill to medium. Clean the grates. Set the pieces of tempeh on the grill. Cook the tempeh until char marks begin to appear on the underside, about 5 minutes. Carefully flip the tempeh pieces over and cook until the other side has char marks as well, another 5 minutes. You can brush remaining marinade over the tempeh as it grills if you like. Serve tempeh hot with accompaniments.

This was such an easy and really delicious recipe. I added some tofu to the mix. It was .

Delicious! Perfect flavourful week night meal. Will definitely have it on regular rotation. Thanks so much Laura!

This was quick, healthy, and delicious! Will definitely make again.

Tasty, perfectly balanced and very versatile recipe ! I used what i had in my fridge (asparagus,  carrots, spinach) , peanut butter and added some vegan meat to boost the protein content.
Will definitely redo ! Thank you very much

Super easy and quick, delicious, my new go to recipe thank you

This recipe popped up in my inbox on a day I was looking for a stir-fry type recipe to use up an obscene amount of bok choy I bought! The flavour is INCREDIBLE. I'm already making this again today. Thank you!!!!

The blender sauce was the hook for me! 
Super easy and customizable to taste preference (sweet/sour/salt ratio). Enough sauce to double amount of veg (used addl cabbage, bell peppers, asparagus I had on hand). My grandkids gobbled it down! Thank you!

So delicious and easy to make!  I used small chopped vegetables I had on hand..red pepper, cabbage, broccoli and frozen peas.

This was delicious! I didn't modify the recipe at all. It had lots of veggies, a touch of spiciness, and good depth of flavor. Not hard to make and a lovely weeknight dinner. I'll be making it again!

This vegan green love quinoa salad is simple to make, super flavourful, ready in 30 minutes, loaded with veg, and great for lunch leftovers!

Green Love Quinoa Salad with Lemon Garlic Vinaigrette

lemon

½ teaspoon agave nectar/maple syrup

pine nuts

quinoa,

asparagus, ends trimmed and diced into 1-inch pieces ((about 1½ cups diced asparagus))

broccoli,

za'atar spice blend

dill

chives

vegan soft cheese, optional ((see notes))

Make the lemon garlic vinaigrette. In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, Dijon mustard, agave, salt, and pepper. Once that&#039;s combined, slowly start pouring in the olive oil, whisking as you go. Once you&#039;ve poured all of the oil in and the vinaigrette is emulsified, give it a little taste. Adjust the level of seasoning if you need to, and then set it aside.

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and scatter the pine nuts over the surface. Slide the baking sheet into the oven while it&#039;s preheating to toast the pine nuts for about 5 minutes, or until lightly golden. Set them aside to cool.

In a small saucepan, combine the quinoa, water, and a pinch of salt. Cover the saucepan with a lid and place it over medium high heat. Bring the quinoa to a boil and then lower the heat to a simmer. Cook until the quinoa has absorbed all of the water and the little tails are sticking out, about 13-15 minutes. Once cooked, remove the quinoa from the heat and let it cool in the saucepan for a couple minutes.

Transfer the cooled toasted pine nuts from the baking sheet to a small bowl.

Place the diced asparagus and broccoli on the baking sheet. Toss the vegetables with olive oil, the za&#039;atar spice blend, salt and pepper. Once everything is evenly coated, spread the vegetables out in a single layer. Slide the baking sheet into the oven and roast for 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are bright green and slightly softened. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the vegetables to cool a bit.

Transfer the cooked quinoa to a large bowl and toss with 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. Then, add the roasted asparagus and broccoli, chopped dill, chopped chives, and the rest of the vinaigrette to the bowl. Sprinkle everything with a big pinch of salt and lots of freshly ground black pepper. Use a serving spoon or spatula to toss the quinoa salad together. Once it&#039;s all combined, give it a taste to see if you&#039;d like to adjust the seasoning at all.

Once the salad is to your liking, serve it up with the pine nuts, soft vegan cheese, and reserved lemon zest sprinkled on top. Leftovers keep in a sealed container for up to 5 days.

This is probably my top 2 or 3 salads of all time. I love salads that go heavy on herbs. The flavor is so bright and I buy the whole bunch of herbs anyway, might as well use them instead of letting most wilt in my fridge! I also love dressed salads that can hold up a few days in the fridge so I can have them throughout the week for lunch. Thank you so much for this recipe.

This recipe was absolutely fantastic! Thank you for such a light, simple but ridiculously flavorful salad!

First off-- love your photography!! So beautiful. Also,&nbsp; love all the green in this. I have asparagus in the fridge just waiting to be used.&nbsp;

Made this recipe last night and it was FANTASTIC! I grilled the veggies which made them so tasty and added zucchini as well. I opted to add 1 more garlic clove to the salad dressing which was delightful. I am not vegan so used some feta and this is now going to be one of my go to recipes!&nbsp;

This was so delicious!! &nbsp;I love the combination of flavors! &nbsp;However, I think as a side, definitely more on the side of 4 servings. Mainly because it is so good you want more of it. As a main, my husband and I ate all of it, no cheese. I will make it again, for sure, it’s a winner. &nbsp;I roasted the vegetables for 20 minutes for personal preference of liking them browned and roasted for flavor.

This pizza night salad is the perfect side to go with a pizza dinner. Finely chopped romaine, radicchio, cucumber, tomato, red onion, chickpeas, sun dried tomatoes, olives, and pepperoncini peppers are bathed in a robust red wine vinegar and thyme dressing. Ready in 30 minutes!

Pizza Night Salad

red wine vinegar

thyme leaves, minced

pepperoncini pepper brine

mayonnaise

agave nectar/fine sugar/honey

½ teaspoon Tamari soy sauce

chickpeas

cherry tomatoes,

½ medium red onion, small dice ((about ¾ cup diced red onion))

½ English cucumber, small dice ((about 1 cup diced cucumber))

olives,

tomatoes

romaine hearts, finely shredded ((about 5-6 cups shredded romaine))

vegan "parmesan", for serving ((optional))

Make the dressing. In a sealable jar, combine the red wine vinegar, thyme, pepperoncini pepper brine, vegan mayonnaise, agave nectar, Dijon mustard, Tamari, garlic, salt, and pepper. Seal the lid on top of the jar and give it a good shake. Open up the jar and add the olive oil. Seal the lid back on and give it another shake. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, pepperoncini peppers, olives, and sun dried tomatoes. Season this mixture with salt and pepper and toss with 3 tablespoons of the dressing.

Add the romaine, radicchio, and remaining dressing to a large serving bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add ½ of the chickpea and vegetable mixture and toss to combine. Top the salad with the remaining chickpea and vegetable mixture, extra black pepper, and vegan &quot;parmesan&quot; if you like. Serve immediately.

This salad is amazing! I made it for my meat-loving family, and it was a big hit. I just prepped it for the week, and I'm really looking forward to enjoying it for dinner over the next few days.

Delicious!  This recipe popped up on my Pinterest feed, and the picture looked fantastic.  I am so glad I took a chance and made it for dinner, this will definitely go into my file as a salad to make again.  I didn't have it with pizza, it was a meal all on it's own.  Thank you for sharing!

This is probably the best salad I have ever had - I binged on it to the point of a serious stomach ache! 
The kids (6, 7) loved it and so did the grown-ups - none of us are into dressing so I tried a little just for the review, and ate the rest without it. This salad is incredible and I will be making it again this week. And maybe the next week. And the week after that...
I did have to sub the fancy lettuces for regular old iceberg due to availability in the area, but the salad still slaps so hard. I'll add more protein to it to make a whole meal of it next time.

Try making this with roasted or grilled broccoli instead of romaine if you want a different kind of salad. Delicious!  I’ve made a number of swaps, additions, and omissions and it’s great every time. You can’t go wrong with this one, it’s definitely in regular rotation at our house.

I make salads almost every day and was looking to make a different style of salad with homemade deep dish pizza, something with a touch more acid like the salads served with pizza at Chicago area restaurants while I was growing up,
I made this salad using the pickled sweet banana peppers that I had on hand and we enjoyed it very much. I usually use oregano with mint or oregano with marjoram in salad dressing, so using thyme was a nice change of pace too.

Delicious! Hearty enough to stand alone.  I make this for my oldest who is a vegetarian, chop up some optional chicken for the meat eaters and everyone is happy! Thank you for the recipe!

My new favorite salad. I have made this multiple times over the past few months. Great for pizza night, great for leftover the next day, it's just so delicious!

I’ve made this salad three times in the last week. So yummy with pasta, lasagna or pizza!

Love this salad and dressing! Crowd pleaser! Served with a pasta dish and looking forward to a pizza night! :-)

This is so delicious! You are right, it's perfect for pizza night. I will 100% be keeping this recipe handily. Yum yum.

Love this recipe and have made it a few times! It is a winner.

So tasty! I added a cup of cooked quinoa and turned this into a full on dinner salad. Super satisfying.

This pizza night salad is the perfect side to go with a pizza dinner. Crisp and finely chopped romaine, radicchio, cucumber, tomato, red onion, chickpeas, sun dried tomatoes, olives, and pepperoncinis are bathed in a robust red wine vinegar and thyme dressing. Ready in 30 minutes!

This tangy four bean salad gets a kick of flavour from rosemary, garlic, and a bit of chili in the dressing. Roasted red peppers add colour and sweetness to this hearty salad with fresh green and yellow beans, chickpeas, and red kidney beans.

Tangy Four Bean Salad with Rosemary &amp; Roasted Peppers

rosemary

chilies,

Worcestershire sauce

¾ lb (340 grams) mixed fresh yellow and green beans

19 oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed ((about 2 cups chickpeas))

red onion, fine dice

red peppers, fine dice

flat leaf parsley, chopped

Pour the olive oil in a small skillet and place the garlic, rosemary, and chilies (if using) in there. Put the skillet on the stove over medium heat and stir. Once the garlic starts to sizzle and get fragrant, about 1 minute, remove from the heat (don’t let it brown).

To the skillet, add the agave nectar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and vinegar. Whisk to combine and set aside.

Trim the ends off the green beans and chop into 2-inch pieces. Place a medium bowl with ice water on the counter. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water up to a boil over medium high heat. Drop the beans into the water and boil until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain the beans and drop them into the ice water bowl right away to stop the cooking process. Let them cool off completely.

To a large bowl, add the chickpeas, red kidney beans, red onion, roasted red peppers, parsley, and some salt and pepper. Drain the yellow/green beans thoroughly and add them to the bowl as well. Pour over the dressing. Toss to combine, adding more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve!

This is so good and easy to make. Thank you for the recipe!

another great salad!
loved the rosemary dressing in this one!

Can't wait to make this once I have fresh beans in my garden! I love the idea of cooking the dressing a bit! Any tips for chopping veggies in such a small and uniform way?
