Grilled Lemon Pepper Tofu
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 block of extra firm tofu, pressed and drained
- 1/4 cup of olive oil
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon of lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon of onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon of paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of lemon zest, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon of onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of paprika to make the marinade.
- Cut the pressed and drained tofu into 1/2 inch thick slices and place them in a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the tofu slices, making sure they are evenly coated. Let the tofu marinate for 10 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
- Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the marinated tofu slices on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the tofu is heated through.
- Remove the grilled tofu from the grill and serve hot. Enjoy!
