Oven BBQ Tofu
- 1 package (12 To 14 Oz. Size) Firm Tofu That Has Been Completely Frozen And Then Thawed Out
- 3 Tablespoons Peanut Butter
- 13 cups Oil (I Use Olive Oil)
- 1 Tablespoon Paprika
- 1/4 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- BBQ Sauce Of Your Choice, For Basting The Tofu
- 1/4 cups Olive Oil For Baking Sheet (may Use Less Or Cooking Spray!)
- First you will need to freeze the tofu a couple of days before you make this.
- Make sure that it gets frozen all the way through.
- Then I just pull it out of the freezer the morning that Im going to make it.
- This helps the tofu to hold together better and not crumble apart.
- You can buy extra firm, but its still best to freeze it.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Take a baking sheet and spread about 1/4 cup of oil on it or less.
- You just want there to be a thin layer of oil.
- If you want to go healthier, you can use cooking spray instead.
- Cut your tofu into 1/3-1/2 inch slices.
- Make sure you squeeze out as much of the liquid as possible from it.
- Set your tofu aside.
- Gather up the rest of your ingredients (except the BBQ sauce) and put them together in a bowl.
- Whisk these together until the mixture is smooth.
- Now its time for the sauce to meet the tofu.
- You can pour it over the tofu or do what I do and dump the tofu in the sauce youve made.
- Push the strips into the sauce and make sure that you completely cover them with the sauce.
- When your tofu is ready, lay it out in a single layer on your baking sheet.
- Bake the tofu for about 25 minutes.
- Then pull it out and flip it over.
- The bottoms should be slightly browned.
- Now take your BBQ sauce and brush some over the top of the tofu.
- Put it back in the oven and bake another 25 minutes.
- Pull it out and flip it over again.
- Put BBQ sauce on the top again, which will be the side that doesnt have sauce on it!
- Put it back in the oven and bake it for about 15 minutes.
- Pull it out and you are done!
