How to Prepare Grilled Barbecue Tempeh Slider With Kale Slaw [Vegan]
- Cut your tempeh to size to perfectly fit each bun. Add to a shallow dish and cover with enough barbecue sauce to coat fully. Lightly flip each piece until covered. Set aside until needed; you can marinate overnight for even more flavor.
- Wash and thinly slice your purple cabbage. Transfer to a large bowl with shredded carrots.
- In a medium bowl, add kale ripped from the stem into bite-size pieces. Massage with lemon juice and a touch of oil; this will help break it down and remove any bitter flavor. Test a piece to see if it’s still bitter, you’ll know it’s ready when the bitterness goes away, and it reduces in size.
- Mix kale, carrots, and cabbage with a little liquid sweetener (like agave nectar), salt, and pepper, to taste. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Heat a grill pan to medium heat and lightly oil as needed.
- Place tempeh at a diagonal and cook for 4-5 minutes, flip, and repeat.
- Toast slider buns as desired.
- Assemble with grilled tempeh, kale slaw, and a touch of vegan mayonnaise and/or mustard on top.
- Serve warm.
