Instructions

Heat a heavy-bottomed wok or skillet over high heat. Add a splash of neutral oil.

Add the sliced seitan and sear undisturbed for 2 minutes until the edges are golden brown and slightly crisp. Toss and continue to sear for another minute.

Add 1 tbsp of minced fresh ginger and a dash of garlic, blooming them until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Introduce the fresh spinach in handfuls, tossing quickly so it wilts but retains its vibrant green color.

Pour in the soy-sesame-sugar glaze, allowing it to bubble and reduce slightly, coating the seitan and spinach in a glossy, savory-sweet finish.

Remove from heat immediately.

Serve over a generous bed of fluffy white rice. Garnish with the toasted sliced almonds for a necessary crunch and a final sprinkle of thinly sliced scallions.
