Seitan Kebabs

These simple kebabs may become a staple for you if you like grilled foods. In the colder months, they turn out well from the broiler. Serve with corn on the cob, diced fresh tomatoes, and a simple slaw made from shredded cabbage and your favorite vinaigrette.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 Servings

Ingredients

2 medium red bell peppers, cut into 1-inch dice
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick chunks
1 pound seitan, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
1/2 to 2/3 cup natural low-fat barbecue sauce

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the broiler or grill.

    Step 2

    Using 8- to 10-inch metal skewers, alternate the bell peppers, zucchini, and seitan, in that order, until all the ingredients are used up. There should be enough for 8 skewers.

    Step 3

    Brush the barbecue sauce over the kebabs, then place on a foil-lined baking sheet for the broiler or on a piece of foil for the grill. Broil or grill, turning every 3 to 5 minutes (use an oven mitt!) until done to your liking. Allow 2 skewers per serving.
