1
Heat the oil in a wide skillet.
2
Add the onions and saute over medium heat until translucent.

Add the seitan and mushrooms, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and the seitan is browned here and there.
4
Pour in the wine and stir.
5
Place the flour in a small bowl.
6
Use some of the rice milk to dissolve the flour into a smooth paste.
7
Add the remaining rice milk, dissolved flour, and Silk creamer to the skillet and stir together.
8
Stir in the paprika and cook over low heat for 5 minutes longer.
9
If the sauce becomes too thick, thin with a little additional rice milk.
10
Season with salt and pepper and serve at once.
11
To extend the Parisian theme, serve with Salade Janine (page 187) as a first course, then follow with the seitan dish and an easy side dish of broccoli, asparagus, or Brussels sprouts.
