How to Prepare Sticky Baked BBQ Tempeh Strips [Vegan]

Preheat oven 375°F. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper, tin foil, silicone baking mat, or a layer of coconut oil.
Open your package of tempeh and rinse well. Simmer a little water (enough to cover tempeh), 1 tablespoon of the tamari, onion powder, and garlic in a medium pot. Cook the tempeh in the simmering “broth” for about 10 minutes.
Remove the tempeh with tongs and place in a shallow container. Add 1/4 cup of the simmering liquid, plus the other tablespoon of tamari and allow to marinate for about 15-20 minutes. You prepare my other dishes at this time — chop vegetables, cut up potatoes, etc.
Remove the tempeh from the marinade and cut into 10-11 thick strips. Place the strips carefully on the prepared baking pan. Bake for about 10 minutes. Remove and brush both sides generously with barbecue sauce, using tongs to flip carefully. Return pan to oven and bake for another 12-15 minutes.
