Ingredients

• 500 grams Seitan (wheat gluten)
• 60 ml Olive oil
• 30 ml Soy sauce
• 30 ml Lemon juice
• 4 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Rosemary, dried
• 1 teaspoon Thyme, dried
• 1 teaspoon Oregano, dried
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 large Red onion, cut into chunks
• 2 Bell peppers, cut into chunks
• 200 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 8 Wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Start by soaking the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. This prevents them from burning on the grill.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, oregano, cumin, coriander, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to form a marinade.

Step 3

Cut the seitan into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Step 4

While the seitan is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting the red onion and bell peppers into chunks similar in size to the seitan pieces.

Step 5

Skewer the seitan, red onion, bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes alternately onto the soaked skewers.

Step 6

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 7-8 minutes per side, turning occasionally until the veggies are tender and the seitan is nicely charred.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite side dishes or salads.
