Ingredients
- 8 ounces dried campanelle pasta (or pasta shape of choice)
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 16 ounces seitan, cut into ½-inch cubes
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon vegan Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook it according to the package directions. Drain the pasta into a colander when it has finished cooking.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the onion. Cook the onion for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until it softens and begins to brown.
- Stir in the seitan. Cook the seitan with the onion for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown in spots.
- Add the garlic and flour. Stir the mixture so that the flour coats the seitan. Cook the mixture for about 1 minute, until the garlic becomes very fragrant.
- Stir in the broth, thyme, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Raise the heat and bring the liquid to a boil. Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Stir in the cooked pasta, then remove the skillet from heat.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve.
