Postup
Krok za krokem
- 1
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper to create the seitan seasoning.
Přibližně 2 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Mix well to ensure spices are evenly distributed.
- 2
Toss the thinly sliced seitan with the seasoning blend in a medium bowl, ensuring each piece is coated.
Přibližně 3 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Use your hands for best coverage.
- 3
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Přibližně 2 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Ensure the pan is hot before adding seitan to get a good sear.
- 4
Add the seasoned seitan to the hot pan in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Poznámka kuchaře: Overcrowding can steam the seitan instead of browning it.
- 5
Cook the seitan for 3-5 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and slightly crispy.
Přibližně 8 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Adjust heat if needed to prevent burning.
- 6
While the seitan cooks, prepare the tzatziki by combining dairy-free plain yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped fresh mint (if using), and salt in a small bowl.
Přibližně 5 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Allow the tzatziki to sit for a few minutes for flavors to meld.
- 7
In another bowl, combine diced tomato, diced cucumber, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped fresh dill (if using) for the salad.
Přibližně 5 min

Warm the pita bread according to package instructions, either in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven.
Přibližně 2 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Warm pita is more pliable and enjoyable.

Store leftover seitan, tzatziki, and salad components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
Reheat seitan in a pan until warm; pita can be warmed in a skillet or microwave. Tzatziki and salad are best served cold.
