Ingredients
- Tempeh 1 x 200g block
- Olive oil 3 tbsp
- Lemon 1
- Fresh dill 2 tbsp, finely chopped, plus extra for garnish
- Garlic 2 cloves, minced
- Red onion 1/2, thinly sliced
- Cherry tomatoes 150g, halved
- Kalamata olives 50g, pitted and halved
- Dried oregano 1 tsp
- Salt 1/2 tsp
- Black pepper 1/4 tsp
Method
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6).
- Cut the tempeh into 1.5cm cubes or triangles.
- In a bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp of the olive oil, the juice of half the lemon, the chopped fresh dill, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Add the tempeh cubes to the bowl and toss gently to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
- On a large baking tray, spread out the marinated tempeh, red onion slices, halved cherry tomatoes, and halved olives.
- Drizzle the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil over the ingredients on the tray.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the tempeh is golden brown and slightly crispy, and the tomatoes are softened.
- Squeeze the remaining half lemon over the baked mixture just before serving. Garnish with extra fresh dill.
