Pan-Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Tempeh
The best part of this super easy vegan meal is the crispy shallots. No, it’s the tempeh that tastes like bacon bits. No, it’s the tender roasted sweet potatoes. No, no, no—it’s the smoky chipotle oil that flavors it all.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Place a rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 425°. Heat shallots, chipotle chiles, tempeh, and oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high until oil is sizzling, then reduce heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until shallots and tempeh are golden brown, 8–⏱️ 10 minutes.
2
Drain tempeh mixture in a fine-mesh sieve set over a large heatproof bowl. Wipe out and reserve skillet. Transfer tempeh mixture to paper towels; season with salt. Let cool (it will crisp as it cools).
3
Add sweet potatoes to bowl with drained oil and season with salt; turn to coat. Arrange sweet potatoes cut side down in reserved skillet; set bowl with remaining oil aside. Roast sweet potatoes, undisturbed, until golden brown and tender, 25–⏱️ 30 minutes.
