Barbecue Seitan Sandwiches (Recipe)

Barbecue Seitan Sandwiches

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

• 1 small onion, chopped

• 1 package seitan strips or chunks cut into strips

• 1 cup vegan barbecue sauce

• ¼ cup water

• Hot sauce (optional)

• 4 hamburger buns

• Suggested toppings: lettuce, tomato, green pepper, coleslaw, red onions

1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5-8 minutes, or until the onion is very soft. Add seitan, and cook until lightly browned, stirring often. 2. Add the barbecue sauce and water and cook, stirring every 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and been absorbed by the seitan. Add hot sauce to taste if using. 3. Toast the inside of the buns to prevent them from getting soggy, then spoon the seitan mixture onto the rolls and garnish. Serve hot.
