seitan, preferably homemade
garlic powder
onion powder
nutritional yeast
2-3 drops liquid smoke
olive oil
barbecue sauce
Cut the seitan into bitesize chunks. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, nutritional yeast, and liquid smoke and toss to coat. Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a frying pan. Dump the coated seitan in the pan and let sit for a minute or so before turning. A brownish crispy crust will form on the seitan pieces. When they're browned on all sides, dump in the barbecue sauce and lower the heat to a very low simmer. When hot, consume!
(If you're going to use store-bought seitan, you might want to simmer it in water + soy sauce for a few minutes in order to make it all tender and juicy. I'm too much of a cheapskate to buy it, so I make my own, using the recipe from Vegan with a Vengeance.)
