Instructions

  1. Whisk together all ingredients for the teriyaki sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-low heat, add 1-2 teaspoons of oil. Once hot, add tempeh strips and brown, adding more oil, a little at a time, as necessary to keep the pan from drying out. You'll want to cook the tempeh for about 3-4 minutes per side.
  3. Once tempeh is golden brown in color, add teriyaki sauce and nutritional yeast to the pan. Toss to coat the tempeh.
  4. Add broccoli florets and garlic into the pan. Sauté/simmer mixture for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally. If the pan seems dry, you can add a splash of water, 1 Tablespoon at a time. You can also cover the pan to help the broccoli steam.
  5. Remove from heat once broccoli is tender-crisp and bright green in color. Serve immediately over ½ cup brown rice with scallions and sesame seeds as a garnish.

Notes

  • Salt: This dish can be a little on the salty side if you don't use low-sodium tamari or soy sauce. If you want to cut back on the sodium, you can replace 2 Tablespoons of  the tamari/soy sauce with vegetable stock.
