Seitan and Mushrooms in Paprika Cream
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 medium onions, halved and thinly sliced
- 1 pound seitan, cut into bite-size pieces
- 8 to 10 ounces cremini or baby bella mushrooms, sliced
- 1/4 cup dry white or red wine
- 2 tablespoons unbleached white flour
- 1/2 cup rice milk, plus more if needed
- 1/2 cup plain Silk creamer
- 2 teaspoons sweet paprika
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- Heat the oil in a wide skillet.
- Add the onions and saute over medium heat until translucent.
- Add the seitan and mushrooms, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and the seitan is browned here and there.
- Pour in the wine and stir.
- Place the flour in a small bowl.
- Use some of the rice milk to dissolve the flour into a smooth paste.
- Add the remaining rice milk, dissolved flour, and Silk creamer to the skillet and stir together.
- Stir in the paprika and cook over low heat for 5 minutes longer.
- If the sauce becomes too thick, thin with a little additional rice milk.
- Season with salt and pepper and serve at once.
- To extend the Parisian theme, serve with Salade Janine (page 187) as a first course, then follow with the seitan dish and an easy side dish of broccoli, asparagus, or Brussels sprouts.
- See suggestions under My Favorite Simple Vegetable Side Dishes (page 203).
- This dish also pairs well with cooked grains of your choice (see Easy Ways to Dress Up Grains, page 95), potatoes, or sweet potatoes.
- A combination of sweet and white potatoes, sauteed in olive oil, is good with this.
- Complete the meal with a simple salad of greens and tomatoes.
