Instructions

Cube the tempeh and season it, then stir-fry over medium-high heat until well browned, about 10 minutes.

Add the jalapeno and bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 7 minutes.

Stir in the BBQ sauce, black pepper, smoked paprika and brown sugar for a final minute.

Cook the grits separately according to package directions.

Let everything simmer for about 14 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the grits, garnished with fresh herbs.
