Step 1
Cut the 8 oz tempeh into 1/2-inch thick slices. Steam them in a steamer basket over boiling water for 5 minutes to remove bitterness and help them absorb the glaze.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the 2 tbsp miso paste, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 2 tbsp water until smooth.
Step 3
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tempeh slices in a single layer and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Step 4
Pour the miso glaze over the tempeh and add the 1 cup edamame. Stir to coat and cook until the glaze thickens and clings to the tempeh, about 2 minutes.
Step 5
Sprinkle with the 1 tbsp sesame seeds and serve hot.
