Grilled Tofu With A Mediterranean Chopped Salad Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Peacekeeper0 / All my dishes 1 year, 12 months ago Mild-flavored tofu benefits from this intensely flavored lemon juice-and-garlic-based marinade. If you have the time, marinate the tofu early in the day (up to 8 hours before serving) so it can absorb all the flavors. Prep:30m Cook:15m Servings:4	Peacekeeper

Ingredients

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Freshly ground pepper to taste

14 ounces extra-firm tofu, preferably water-packed

Mediterranean Chopped Salad (recipe follows)

Directions

Preheat grill.

Whisk lemon juice, oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons of this mixture for basting.

Drain and rinse tofu; pat dry. Cut the block crosswise into eight 1/2-inch-thick slices and place in a shallow glass dish. Add remaining marinade and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or for up to 8 hours.

Meanwhile, make Mediterranean Chopped Salad.

Lightly oil the grill rack (hold a piece of oil-soaked paper towel with tongs and rub it over the grate). Drain the tofu, discarding marinade. Grill the tofu over medium-high heat, basting occasionally with reserved lemon juice mixture, until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve immediately, topped with the salad.
