Instructions
Mix together all ingredients except tempeh in a big bowl. Crumble tempeh into the marinade and let sit for at least 30 minutes.
When ready to cook, heat a wide pan over medium-low heat and add tempeh crumbles and marinade. Add a few splashes of water if the tempeh soaked up all the liquid. Cover pan and steam tempeh for 10 minutes.
Uncover pan and let the liquid cook off, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Once the tempeh turns a darker golden brown and starts to char, turn off heat and tempeh is ready to serve.
