Ingredients
Instructions
-
Begin by slicing the smoked tempeh into thin strips. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, maple syrup, and smoked paprika. Add the tempeh slices to the bowl and coat them well in the marinade. Allow the tempeh to marinate for at least 15 minutes to soak up the flavors.
-
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tempeh slices to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until lightly browned and crispy. Remove from the heat and set aside.
-
Toast your bread slices until golden and crispy. Once toasted, spread a generous layer of vegan mayo on one side of each slice, followed by a dollop of Dijon mustard on the other side.
-
To assemble the sandwich, place the marinated and cooked tempeh slices on one bread slice. Top with fresh tomato slices, a handful of peppery arugula, and season with a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
-
Place the other bread slice on top to form a sandwich. You can enjoy it as is or press it gently to make the ingredients meld together. Cut the sandwich in half diagonally for a beautiful presentation.

Your Smoked Tempeh Arugula And Tomato Sandwich is ready to be devoured! Serve it with a side of pickles, a handful of your favorite chips, or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
