Fermented soybeans might sound scary, but tempeh is an awesome plant-based protein option for sandwiches. Experience this savory marinade with oven-baked caramelization for all the umami goodness you crave.
Preparation
STEP 1
Thinly slice tempeh and place in a bowl or baking dish.
STEP 2
Mix soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, maple syrup, smoked paprika and granulated garlic in small bowl. Pour marinade over tempeh. Leave at room temperature to marinate for 30 minutes.
STEP 3
Preheat oven to 375°F.
STEP 4
Transfer tempeh to a parchment lined baking sheet dispersing slices in a single layer.
STEP 5
Bake tempeh until browned flipping halfway, about 20 minutes.
STEP 6
Build sandwich on toasted bread with baked tempeh and your toppings of choice.
Options
If using a flavored tempeh, you can opt not to use the marinade part of the recipe.
For added protein try a layer of hummus or a few slices of plant-based deli meat.
