A great choice for hearty appetites, this convincingly dispels the notion that vegetarian cuisine is “rabbit food.”

　　

Ingredients

4 to 6 servings

　　2 tablespoons light olive oil

　　2 large onions, quartered and sliced

　　10 to 12 ounces white or cremini mushrooms, sliced

　　1 to 1 1/2 pounds seitan, cut into bite-size chunks

　　3 to 4 tablespoons natural stir-fry sauce, or to taste

　　

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large skillet or stir-fry pan. Add the onions and sauté over medium heat until golden.

　　

Step 2

Add the mushrooms, cover, and cook until they are done to your liking, 5 to 7 minutes.

　　

Step 3

Stir in the seitan and stir-fry sauce. Turn the heat up to medium-high and stir-fry until the seitan chunks are touched by golden-brown spots. Season to taste with pepper, and serve.
