Easy BBQ Roasted Tofu

Zutaten

1 block extra firm tofu

1-2 tablespoons olive oil

sea salt

black pepper (optional)

1/4 cup BBQ sauce

Anweisungen

Press tofu for about 20 minutes. I do this by wrapping the tofu block in a dish cloth and sandwiching it between two plates. I then place something heavy on top, like an empty tea kettle.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees (F). When tofu is finished pressing, lay flat on a cutting board and cut into 3 rectangular blocks. Slice each block into 4 thin slabs (12 total pieces).

Lay out tofu slabs on a baking sheet in a single layer with some space in between each slab. Brush both sides of each slab with olive oil and season with salt (and pepper, if using).

Roast tofu for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and flip. Push tofu slabs together and brush the top side with 1/3 of the BBQ sauce. Return to oven for 15 minutes.

Remove tofu from oven, flip slabs again and brush the second side with another 1/3 of the sauce. Return to oven for another 15 minutes (or until desired texture is reached). Remove from oven and brush with remaining sauce.
