Sticky BBQ Glazed Tofu
Instructions
Prepare Tofu
35-40 minutes
Drain excess fluid from tofu package. Next, using a tofu press further remove moisture and pat away any excess moisture using a cloth
Slice tofu into quarter inch pieces. Add tofu to pan heat each side on low for five minutes. Oil is not necessary but can help prevent the tofu from sticking to the pan
Allow tofu to cool for 5-10 minutes
Air fry on 400 F for 8 minutes each side
Set aside to cool. It is important to allow the slices to cool so that they do not crumble in the next step
Dice slices into cubes
Add 1/2 c tomato sauce and season to taste with salt. Gently toss
Air fry 400 F for 15 minutes. This may vary depending on the air fryer
Check every 10 minutes until tofu reaches desired texture or chewiness. Note: Tofu (pressed) well in advance, should take less time to cook, hence why a tofu press will come in handy.
Cool down and set aside
Sauce

1 tbsp lemon juice
Pinch cayenne, black pepper, garlic powder, and turmeric

Typically, I pair it with a bed of jasmine rice or quinoa. Enjoy!
