Ingredients

• 1 package (store-bought or homemade, vegan) Pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup BBQ sauce
• 1.5 cups (shredded) Vegan cheese
• 8 ounces Seitan
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 cup (thinly sliced) Red onion
• 1 cup (sliced) Red bell pepper
• 1 cup (sliced) Mushrooms
• 0.25 cup (chopped, optional) Fresh cilantro or parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

Step 2

In a medium skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add sliced seitan, soy sauce, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the seitan is browned and slightly crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness, creating a slight lip around the edges for the crust.

Step 4

Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the surface of the dough, covering the edges as well.

Step 5

Spread the BBQ sauce evenly over the base of the pizza, leaving a small border around the edge for the crust.

Step 6

Sprinkle half of the shredded vegan cheese over the BBQ sauce.

Step 7

Top with cooked seitan pieces, sliced red onion, red bell pepper, and mushrooms.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining vegan cheese on top of the vegetables.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the pizza onto a baking sheet or preheated pizza stone.

Step 10

Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.

Step 12

Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley, if using. Slice the pizza and serve immediately.
