Cilantro Lime Grilled Tofu

Ingredients

1 block firm or extra-firm tofu (well-pressed), 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 cup lime juice, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 2 tbsp fresh chopped cilantro, 2 tsp chili powder, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, salt and pepper to taste, pre-soaked wooden skewers(optional)

Details

Slice pressed tofu into 4 thick slabs. Or, chop into cubes and place on bamboo skewers. (You can also double the recipe, add veggies and soaked wooden skewers to make tofu kabobs). Whisk together remaining ingredients and add tofu, coating well. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours, and up to overnight. Prepare your EGG to about 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Either spray your grill with a non-stick cooking spray (i.e. Pam) or brush the tofu/kabob with a light cooking oil. Place tofu on grill or bamboo skewers, and cook until lightly browned on all sides, basting occasionally with extra marinade. Tofu Grilling Tips: Tofu is best cooked with skewers on a BBQ as it tends to stick to a hot grill. And always brush with a a good cooking oil to prevent sticking.
