Grilled Tofu With Spicy Peanut Sauce
- 2 14.5-oz. packages water-packed extra-firm tofu, drained
- Grapeseed oil
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
- 3 tablespoons salted peanuts
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 red Fresno chili, seeded and chopped
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- Preheat grill to high (450u0b0F to 550u0b0F). Cut each tofu block in half lengthwise to make 4 (about 1-inch-thick) slabs. Wrap each slab in several layers of paper towels or kitchen towels. Let stand 10 minutes to drain excess liquid. Remove towels. Lightly brush tofu with grapeseed oil. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar evenly over tofu. Sprinkle with pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt.
- Pulse cilantro, peanuts, olive oil, sesame oil, vinegar, garlic, chili, ginger, lime juice and remaining 1 tablespoon brown sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor until finely chopped.
- Generously oil grill grate with grapeseed oil. Grill tofu until grill marks appear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Cut each slab into 3 triangles. Serve with peanut sauce.
