Lemon Herb Tofu
- 1 cake firm tofu (about 16 ounces)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons dried herbs, such as rosemary, dill, or oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, minced (optional)
- Preheat the oven to 400.
- Cut the block of tofu into 4 slices and then cut the slices into cubes, triangles, or strips.
- Spread the tofu pieces in a single layer in a lightly oiled baking pan large enough to hold them.
- Whisk together the lemon juice, soy sauce, oil, herbs, pepper, and garlic, and pour over the tofu.
- Bake uncovered, stirring every 10 or 15 minutes, until most of the marinade is absorbed, the oil is sizzling, and the tofu is firm and chewy, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Serve hot, at room temperature, or chilled.
- Use fresh herbs in place of dried: 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill or cilantro, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano, or 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary.
- Try this tofu on Greek Salad (page 211), or create a Mediterranean plate with Tomatoes & Onions with Mint (page 205) and steamed artichokes with Herbed Aioli (page 224).
