Serves: 4 servings
- 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley, stems removed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 fresh red chile, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano
- 2 cloves garlic
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ cup raw cashews, soaked for 2 hours, rinsed and drained
- ½ cup cilantro, packed
- ¼ cup water
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeds and membrane removed
- 2 cloves garlic
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon grapeseed oil
- 1 yellow onion, halved and thinly sliced
- 3 poblano or Anaheim peppers, deseeded and cut into thin strips
- 2 portobello mushrooms, cut into thin strips
- 8 ounces seitan, sliced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 8 tortillas
- Diced tomatoes and sliced jalapeños for serving, optional
- Mix together the chimichurri ingredients in a food processor. Set aside.
- Mix together the jalapeño sauce ingredients in a high-speed blender or food processor, and set aside.
- Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the oil and onions. Cook the onions until they soften and brown slightly. Add the peppers, portobellos, seitan, and salt. Cook for about 10 minutes, until the vegetables soften and the seitan browns.
- While the mixture is cooking, warm the tortillas. I place the stack in the oven set to 250°F for 5 minutes. You can also heat a pan on the stovetop over medium heat and warm tortillas one and a time, for a minute or two on each side.
- Add the chimichurri sauce to the setain-and-vegetable mixture, and give it a big stir to make sure everything is coated. Remove from the heat.
- Divide the mixture among the tortillas and top with the Jalapeño Lime Sauce. Top with tomatoes and jalapeños (if using).
