Italian pomegranate tempeh recipe



Recipe for italian pomegranate tempeh in our easy vegetarian recipes collection.

Recipe ingredients

  • Tempeh:
    • 16 ounces tempeh, defrosted
  • Sauce:
    • 6 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
    • 2 cups pomegranate juice
    • 1/2 cup brown rice syrup
    • 2 tablespoons dried basil
    • 4 teaspoons dried oregano
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 6 garlic cloves, minced
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

How to make italian pomegranate tempeh

  • Slice defrosted tempeh cross-wise to create 3 inch by 1/2 inch strips.
  • Place sliced tempeh in bottom of a 9 x 9 inch baking pan.
  • Combine all sauce ingredients in a sauce pan, and heat.
  • Once this comes to a simmer, pour it over tempeh in baking dish.
  • Bake dish in a 450 degrees F oven until most of the liquid is absorbed into the tempeh, about 45 minutes.
  • About half way through baking, flip the tempeh in the pan so all sides of the tempeh absorb the sauce evenly, and so both the top and the bottom have a chance to get a little brown.
  • Remove from oven, and gently mix the tempeh so the sauce covers more evenly.
  • Variation: Try using pressed tofu, or even drained garbanzo beans, instead of tempeh.
