- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 250 ml Vegetable broth
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, and parsley.
Step 3
Add the olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to the herb mixture. Mix well to form a paste.
Step 4
Rub the herb and garlic paste evenly over the seitan, ensuring it is well coated.
Step 5
Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat and add a touch of olive oil.
Step 6
Sear the seitan in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it is lightly browned.
Step 7
Once seitan is seared, pour vegetable broth into the skillet around the seitan to help keep it moist during roasting.
Step 8
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 30-35 minutes. Baste once or twice with the broth to enhance flavor and moisture.
