Method

1. Slice the seitan into thin strips and toss them with paprika and a pinch of salt.
2. Finely slice the red onion and dice the fresh tomatoes.
3. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick pan over high heat and sear the seitan strips until golden and crispy (about 5-6 minutes).
4. Add the sliced onion to the pan and cook for 3 minutes until softened.
5. Rinse the black beans and corn, then add them to the pan and stir-fry for another 4 minutes.
6. Turn off the heat and stir in the diced tomatoes and lime juice to keep them fresh.
7. Garnish with fresh coriander if available and serve immediately.

Tips

• The fresh tomatoes added at the end provide a refreshing temperature contrast to the hot seitan.
• Excellent for meal prep: store the stir-fry and tomatoes separately to maintain the best texture.
