Instructions

1

Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, black bean sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Set aside.

2

In another small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Set aside.

3

Heat 1 tablespoon of neutral oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

4

Add the seitan pieces and stir-fry until lightly browned and slightly crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the wok and set aside.

5

Add the broccoli florets and red bell pepper to the hot wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

6

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the wok and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

7

Return the seitan to the wok. Pour the prepared sauce over the ingredients.

8

Stir the cornstarch slurry and add it to the wok. Stir continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the seitan and vegetables, about 1-2 minutes.

9

Stir in most of the chopped scallions, reserving some for garnish.

10

Serve the seitan stir-fry immediately over cooked brown rice, garnished with the remaining scallions.
