How to Make Mexican Seitan
- Heat the olive oil (or beer) in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 4 minutes, until softened.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the chopped bell pepper to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, until slightly softened.
- Add the coarsely chopped or grated seitan to the skillet.
- Stir in the chili powder, oregano, basil (or soy sauce), and Tabasco sauce.
- Sauté for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to prevent sticking.
- Stir in the canned diced tomatoes (undrained).
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the flavors have melded. Adjust seasoning to taste.
