Ingredients

Marinated Tempeh

  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp ground coriander
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black peppercorns
  • 1 tsp honey
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 block plain tempeh, cut into ¾” cubes

Simple Pea Puree

  • 1 cup peas
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 Tbsp water or vegetable stock
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black peppercorns to taste

Brochettes

  • ½ cup each Zima® and Angel Sweet® tomatoes
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • Marinated tempeh
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black peppercorns to taste

Directions

  • In a small bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients except tempeh.  Pour marinade over tempeh cubes. Gently toss to evenly coat and marinate at least 15 minutes.
  • In a blender, blend together all simple pea puree ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
  • Soak medium wooden skewers in water for least 20 minutes.
  • Preheat grill to HIGH. Line a sheet tray with foil.
  • On each skewer, alternate spearing a whole tomato and a cube of tempeh wrapped in a mint leaf. Place skewers onto prepared tray and brush over with a touch of the extra marinade. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Grill on each side until tempeh becomes toasted and golden, the mint chars slightly, and tomatoes blister lightly, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Serve with Simple Pea Puree.
