Ingredients
Method
- Prepare the “Pork”: Toss seitan or tofu with olive oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, and paprika. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
- Mix the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, mustard, soy sauce, and garlic. Set aside.
- Assemble the Skewers: Alternate “pork” cubes and vegetables on skewers—think red, yellow, green for that gorgeous rainbow look.
- Preheat and Cook: Heat a grill pan or oven to medium-high. Brush each skewer with the glaze.
- Grill to Perfection: Cook 5–7 minutes per side until golden, caramelized, and sizzling. Brush more glaze halfway through.
- Serve Hot: Plate your skewers with extra glaze drizzled on top. Add lemon wedges for a zesty finish.
- Optional Extra: Sprinkle sesame seeds or chopped herbs for restaurant-level presentation.
