Instructions
- Marinate tempeh: Crumble tempeh into a medium bowl. Add BBQ sauce and stir well to combine. Set aside and let marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Meanwhile, finely dice onion and bell pepper.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté onion and bell pepper for 10 minutes or until soft. (I use 3 Tbsp. water/broth for no-oil sauté method, adding more as needed.)
- Meanwhile, mince garlic.
- When onion is translucent, add garlic and smoked paprika. Stir and sauté 1-2 minutes.
- Add the BBQ tempeh and 1/2 cup broth. Stir. Bring to light simmer then cover, reduce heat, and lightly simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Scoop onto buns and add any toppings if desired.
Notes
- *For gluten-free: Use your favorite GF buns, and ensure that your tempeh is gluten-free. (I've seen "three grain" tempeh patties that include wheat products like barley.)
- Toppings: Optional toppings include dill pickles, sliced onions, tomato, coleslaw, lettuce, or vegan cheese slices.
