Mexican Seitan image

Adapted from Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home. I love this as a burrito with beans and a whole wheat tortilla. I use beer instead of oil- it tastes great and is lower in fat. I also used home-made seitan.

Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup chopped onion
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 medium bell pepper
1/2 lb seitan (wheat gluten)
1 tablespoon chili powder

Steps:

  • Saute the onions and garlic in the oil for about 4 minutes, until softened.
  • Chop the pepper and add it to the pan. Coarsely grate or chop the seitan. Mix it into the vegetables along with the chili powder, oregano, basil or soy sauce and Tabasco.

  • Stir in the tomatoes, reduce the heat, and simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my seitan turned out tough. I'm not sure what went wrong.
