This is my husband’s specialty, but of course he had always made it with chicken. Well…not anymore! I finally convinced him to use seitan and even he loved it. Turned out absolutely delicious, which means he’ll be cooking more often. I served it over pilaf and also with my kale and mustard green salad and red wine vinaigrette and it made a complete, satisfying and healthy meal.
INGREDIENTS:
2 pkgs seitan (chicken style), broken up into pieces
1/4 C all purpose flour
1/4 tsp dried marjoram, crushed
1/8 tsp salt, pepper
1 C sliced mushrooms
2 Tbs sliced green onion
3 Tbs Earth Balance margarine
1/4 C vegetable broth
1/4 C Marsala or dry sherry
DIRECTIONS:
Stir together flour, marjoram, salt and pepper. Lightly press seitan pieces into flour mixture and cover all sides, gently shake off the excess. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute the seitan in 1 Tbs of the margarine. Saute until brown on all sides. Seitan is already cooked–its just a matter of heating it through, about 5 mins.
Add the mushrooms, green onions, vegetable broth, Marsala or sherry and remaining 2 Tbs of margarine. Cook uncovered for about 2-3 mins, until the sauce thickens, stirring occasionally.
