Ingredients

• 400 grams Seitan (store-bought or homemade)
• 3 medium Carrots
• 2 medium Parsnips
• 300 grams Brussels sprouts
• 1 small Butternut squash
• 1 large Red onion
• 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut the seitan into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 3

Peel the carrots and parsnips, then slice them into 1-inch chunks.

Step 4

Trim the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Peel and cube the butternut squash into 1-inch chunks. Peel the red onion and cut it into thick wedges.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well mixed.

Step 6

Add the seitan and chopped vegetables to the bowl. Toss everything together until evenly coated with the marinade.

Step 7

Spread the seitan and vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is minimal overlap for even roasting.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, toss the mixture gently, and return it to the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy as a main dish or alongside your favorite grain such as quinoa or rice.
