How to Prepare Orange Soy Maple Sticky Tenders [Vegan]

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the tamari, maple syrup, brown rice vinegar, Sriracha, orange juice and zest (reserve some of the zest for garnish), ginger, garlic and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let simmer until thickened.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and let it heat up. Place the tenders in the skillet and cook until browned on one side, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the second side, another 2-3 minutes.
  3. Lower the heat and pour the sauce over the tenders. Toss to coat the tenders in the sauce. Let cook until the sauce thickens into a glaze. Remove from the heat. Transfer the tenders onto a plate and garnish with the reserved orange zest and scallion (or kale) greens. Serve with your favorite stir-fry.
