Categories     Sauce     Bean

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Shiitake-Miso Gravy (page 217)
One 8-ounce package tempeh, any variety
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
One 10-ounce package frozen whole baby green beans, completely thawed
One red, yellow, or orange bell pepper, cut into long, narrow strips
Toasted slivered or sliced almonds, optional

Steps:

  • Prepare the gravy, cover, and set aside.
  • Cut the tempeh into 1/4-inch-thick slices crosswise, then cut these in half lengthwise to get narrow strips.
  • Heat the oil and soy sauce slowly in a skillet, then add the tempeh strips and stir gently to coat. Sauté over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Gently stir in the green beans and bell pepper and turn the heat to medium-high. Continue to sauté, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes longer.
  • Stir in the gravy, top with almonds if desired, and serve at once.
  • Menu Suggestions
  • To make this dish, you have two recipes to follow (the dish itself and the gravy), so give yourself a break and complete the meal with no further recipes. Serve this over brown rice, quinoa, couscous, or noodles; add a platter of sliced oranges, tomatoes, and pineapple chunks.
