- 2 loafs homemade seitan
- 2 tbsp vegan butter
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup bourbon
- 1/2 cup maple syrup the real kind!
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp lite soy sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Slice the seitan into 25 "wing sized" pieces. Place in your air fryer and cook at 370 degrees for 7-8 minutes, shaking/stirring once about halfway through. If you have a small air fryer you may need to do this in batches, as you don't want the pieces piled too high on top of each other. You want the seitan to be crispy and chewy.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Saute the garlic for 1-2 minutes until it starts to soften. Stir in the cornstarch, making sure it's all mixed well.
Add the remaining ingredients, lower the heat, and simmer uncovered for about 2 minutes until it's nice and thick. Stir in the seitan and let simmer for another 2 minutes or so until they're nicely glazed. Serve hot!
My homemade chicken-style seitan works best for this recipe! And if you're serving a large group, you can easily use a whole batch of seitan and double this recipe.
