Prepare tempeh first by marinating with cilantro, vinegar, tamari, orange juice concentrate, garlic, salt, black pepper, olive oil and water for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, slice the mushrooms, red onions and green peppers, and make a nice macedoine (mixture). Leave the tomatoes out. Remove tempeh from the marinade; slice lengthwise about ¼-inch thick and put back in marinade. Layer tempeh out on a sheet pan with parchment paper and bake in a convection oven at 300 degrees for 15 minutes, then flip strips and cook for additional 10 minutes (or cook in a conventional oven at 350 degree for 15 minutes for each side). Remove the pan from the oven and let tempeh cool.
