Easy Baked Tofu Cubes image

This is my staple tofu marinade! I add it to stir frys and salads or just eat it plain. The recipe was based on a friend's, but I altered the amounts a bit to my taste. I like my tofu best if it's frozen and unthawed before using. Time to make doesn't include marinating.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb firm tofu
1/2 cup soy sauce
6 tablespoons cooking sherry
3 tablespoons lime juice
2 garlic cloves, pressed

Steps:

  • Prepare the tofu by pressing between 2 plates and something heavy (cans, textbooks, whatev). It needs to be pressed for at least 30minutes, draining the water halfway through.
  • Whisk the marinade ingredients and cube the tofu in half inch chunks.
  • Let the tofu soak up the marinade for as long as you like (at least 15 minutes, overnight is ideal).
  • Bake with the marinade in a dish at 375 degrees for 30-45 minutes. Flip the pieces halfway through baking them.
  • Serving ideas: in fried rice, a basic salad, pita pocket w/veggies, w/cooked broccoli.
