A delightful vegan twist on the classic shawarma, featuring marinated seitan strips wrapped in warm pita bread with fresh veggies and a tangy tahini sauce.
Prepare the marinade by combining soy sauce, lemon juice, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
For a deeper flavor, let the marinade sit for a few minutes before adding the seitan.
Add the sliced seitan to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid to prevent the marinade from evaporating.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the marinated seitan. Cook until browned and slightly crispy.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
Prepare the tahini sauce by whisking together tahini, warm water, garlic powder, and lemon juice in a small bowl.
Adjust the consistency of the sauce by adding more water if needed.
Assemble the wraps by placing lettuce, tomato slices, red onion, cooked seitan, and a drizzle of tahini sauce onto each pita bread.
Warm the pita bread slightly for easier wrapping and enhanced flavor.
Serve the wraps immediately and enjoy your delicious vegan shawarma.
Pair with a side salad or fries for a complete meal.
