Ingredients

• 8 oz tempeh
• 2 whole bell peppers
• 1 whole onion
• 8 whole tortillas
• 1 cup cilantro
• 1 lime lime juice
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 whole avocado
• 1 cup sour cream (vegan)
• 1 whole jalapeño

Instructions

1. 1

   Start by preparing the marinade. In a mixing bowl, combine the juice of 1 lime, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.

2. 2

   Cut the tempeh into thin strips and add it to the marinade. Mix well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.

3. 3

   While the tempeh is marinating, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips.

4. 4

   In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

5. 5

   Remove the sautéed vegetables from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the marinated tempeh along with any remaining marinade. Cook on medium-high heat for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tempeh is golden brown and crispy.

6. 6

   Warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until pliable, about 30 seconds in the microwave.

7. 7

   Assemble the fajitas by placing a portion of the sautéed peppers and onions on each tortilla, followed by the crispy tempeh.

8. 8

   Top with chopped cilantro, slices of avocado, and jalapeño for an extra kick. Add vegan sour cream if desired.
