Yield 2-4 people

Number Of Ingredients 14

Marinade:
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 package extra-firm tofu, sliced into 1-inch thick rectangles and patted very dry
Peanut Dipping Sauce:
Â¾ cup coconut milk
Â½ cup peanut butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1Â½ teaspoons curry powder
1Â½ tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon avocado or canola oil
1Â½ tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

For the Marinade: Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, and sherry vinegar in a large bowl. Add the tofu and toss to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours (refrigerate if marinating longer than 1 hour). For the Peanut Dipping Sauce: Put the coconut milk, peanut butter, garlic, curry powder, brown sugar, lime juice, oil, and soy sauce in a food processor. Blend until smooth. Pour into a serving bowl and set aside. Cooking Directions: Preheat the oven to 450F. Arrange the tofu in one layer in a large baking dish (use two if necessary). Brush each piece of tofu with a bit of the Peanut Dipping Sauce. Transfer the baking pan to the oven and bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and flip each piece of tofu. Brush the tofu again with the dipping sauce and return to the oven. Bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until tofu is nicely browned. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve with the dipping sauce
