Health Highlights

Ingredients


794 gm Tofu, regular, extra firm (2 packages, drained)
1/2 cup Sherry vinegar
1/2 cup Soy sauce, low sodium
1/3 cup Olive Oil, Extra Virgin
1 tsp Garlic powder
1/2 tsp Salt (kosher)
1/2 tsp Cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp Marjoram (dried; or thyme)
1/4 tsp Black pepper

Instructions


  1. Wrap tofu in a clean dish towel and place something heavy on top like a large can and allow it to drain for 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, mix together the remaining ingredients in a bowl.
  3. Cut each piece of tofu crosswise into 6 thick slices and put it all in a baking dish. Pour marinade over the tofu, turning to coat, and chill, covered, turning occasionally, for at least 30 minutes or up to 48 hours. Longer is better, but shorter is totally fine.
  4. Preheat a gas grill on high heat (450 degrees F to 650 degrees F) for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to medium (325 degrees F to 375 degrees F). Oil grate.
  5. Transfer tofu from marinade (letting excess drip off and reserving the marinade) to the grill. Cover grill and cook tofu, turning once until well browned, but before grill marks get black, about 10 to 15 minutes total. Transfer tofu to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
  6. Optional: Bring reserved marinade to a boil in a saucepan and boil until it reduces to about half, about 2 minutes. Pour over tofu and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
