Saucy Stovetop Peanut Tempeh

filtered water, divided

natural creamy peanut butter

low-sodium tamari (or soy sauce, liquid aminos)

rice vinegar

maple syrup

sriracha

Sliced green onion and sesame seeds,

Remove the tempeh from its packaging and cut in half. Cut each half into 8 even cubes (by cutting into fourths length and width-wise), then repeat with the other half block.

Place the tempeh and 3/4 cup of water into a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Let the tempeh &#8220;steam&#8221; for 5 minutes to get rid of its bitter flavor.

While the tempeh is steaming, mix the peanut butter, tamari, vinegar, maple syrup, and sriracha together in a small bowl to form a thick paste.

After 5 minutes have passed, push the tempeh to one side of the pan and add the peanut paste to the remaining liquid; use a spatula to dissolve it into the water and evenly coat the tempeh.

Once the tempeh is coated, add an additional 1/4 cup (for a thicker sauce) to 3/4 cup (for extra sauce to coat veggies) of water to the saucepan and mix into the tempeh. The sauce will lighten in color immediately as the peanut butter mixes with the water. Simmer the tempeh for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the sauce has thickened to your liking.

Serve warm, and as desired. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days. To reheat, add the tempeh to a pan with a splash of water and mix well until the sauce loosens.

im obsessed with this recipe! I'll definitely be making it A TON! as a vegan I'm always dreaming up marinades to bring some life into plant based protein and this one is amazing. love how quick and easy it is too. thanks so much for a great recipe :)

Made this last night for my tempeh loving husband. I personally prefer tofu but I thought I’d make this instead. We both really enjoyed it. It was simple and easy to whip up. Thanks for the great recipe !

Instant staple at our house. We don’t really have tempeh any other way anymore! Just delicious ???????? Thanks Caitlin.

Oh my. I'm left without words. This was so so so good!!! You have definitely made me happy with this recipe. I loved it!! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Much love from Mexico. ????

My first time cooking with tempeh and it was so good! I went ahead and baked it using your easy baked tempeh recipe and sautéed some yellow pepper, added frozen microwaved broccoli, and served over jasmine rice. We love peanut sauce and had some extra sriracha on top. Thanks for the easy delicious recipe!

Unbelievable... So easy, quick, tasty and healthy! It's the first time I steam the tempeh before cooking it, the taste is improved, actually. I used shoyu, sugar and Chinese 5 spices, delicious, and cause there's anything fried I digestedbery well ..next time I will stick to the original recipe, but thank you so much ????????????????

This was soooo good!  Easy to make as well which is always a bonus!  Served it with coconut cilantro rice and roasted veggies????????. Definitely a keeper???? BTW I found this recipe on your YouTube channel which I love????

so very simple, quick, and delicious! just perfect!
(substituted rice vinegar with apple cider: 1/2 tablespoon instead of 1).

So easy and delicious!! I love the way you build the steaming of the tempeh into the recipe. I'm amazed at the number of recipes that don't call for steaming! I used half the maple syrup since I like less sweet, and I used gochujang sauce because it doesn't have the preservatives that don't agree with me. I paired the tempeh with some steamed broccoli over brown rice and it was the quickest dinner I've made in ages!

Love this dish.  It is one of those easy to prepare and yummy meals.  I pair it with a variety of grains and greens.
