    METHOD

    FOR THE CARAMELIZED ONIONS
    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the onion. Season with salt and cook, stirring frequently, for about 20 minutes, or until very soft. Cook for 1 minute more after adding maple syrup. Take the pan off the heat and set it aside.


    FOR THE BBQ SEITAN
    Whisk together the ketchup, wine, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, onion powder, and pepper in a small bowl. Place aside.

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the shallot and seitan until lightly browned.

    To the skillet, add the sauce and scallions. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.

    Cut the rolls in half and brush the insides with oil and vinegar. Toast until lightly browned on the edges in a sauté pan over medium heat. Serve with arugula, seitan, tomato, and caramelized onions on top of each roll.
