Seitan and Polenta Skillet with fresh Greens
One 18 ounce tube polenta
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp reduced sodium soy sauce
1 pound seitan, cut into bite-size pieces or strips
4 large or 6 medium stalks of bok choy, with leaves sliced crosswise
5 to 6 ounces fresh baby spinach
4 scallions, green and white parts, sliced
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, or more to taste
1/4 cup sliced oil-cured sun-dried tomatoes
Optional salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Cut the puckered ends off the polenta, then slice 1/2 inch thick. Cut each slice into 4 wedges.
Heat a large non-stick skillet. Add a drop of the oil and spread it around with a paper to create a very light coat, or use cooking oil spray. Add the polenta wedges; cook in a single layer over medium heat, about 5 minutes on each side.
Remove the polenta to a plate. Heat the oil and soy sauce slowly in the same skillet. Before they get too hot, add the seitan and stir well. Raise the heat to medium-high and saute stirring frequently, for 5 minutes. Stir in the bok choy, spinach,and scallions, then continue to cook until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
Sprinkle in the vinegar to taste. Gently fold in the polenta wedges and dried tomatoes.
Season with salt and pepper and serve at once. (4-6 servings; this recipe is from Vegan Express.)
This is so tasty, it is even good cold!
