Maple Glazed Tempeh is a deliciously sweet and savory vegetarian BBQ dish that combines the nutty flavor of tempeh with a rich maple glaze. Perfectly grilled, this dish is both satisfying and healthy, making it a great addition to any BBQ spread.

Ingredients

• Tempeh - 200 grams
• Maple syrup - 4 tablespoons
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Apple cider vinegar - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Smoked paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons (for garnish)

Steps

1. Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium heat.
2. Slice the tempeh into 1/2-inch thick strips and set aside.
3. In a bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, olive oil, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
4. Place the tempeh strips in the bowl and marinate for at least 10 minutes, ensuring each piece is coated with the glaze.
5. Once marinated, place the tempeh strips on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, basting with additional glaze halfway through, until they are caramelized and heated through.
