Tempeh Bacon Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Tempeh

   Slice the tempeh into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

2. 2

   Make the Marinade

   In a bowl, combine soy sauce, maple syrup, smoked paprika, liquid smoke, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix well.

3. 3

   Steam the Tempeh

   Place the sliced tempeh in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for about 10 minutes to soften the tempeh.

4. 4

   Marinate the Tempeh

   Remove the tempeh from the steamer and place it in the bowl with the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

5. 5

   Grill the Tempeh

   Preheat the grill. Place the marinated tempeh strips on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they have grill marks and are heated through.
