Baked Tofu with Creamy Tahini Sauce
Ingredients
- 2 packages extra firm tofu, pressed
- 1 tsp neutral oil (for pan)
Sauce
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1 Tbsp sriracha
- 2 tsp soy sauce or coconut amino
- 1 tsp agave or maple syrup
- 1 tsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp water
Preparation
Press the tofu to remove excess water
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
Spray a large pan with oil to prevent sticking; use two pans if necessary for two packages of tofu
Cut the pressed tofu into bite-size cubes and place evenly on the prepared pan
Bake the tofu for 20 minutes, then remove, flip, and bake for an additional 20 minutes
In a medium bowl, combine the sauce ingredients and whisk until smooth
Add the baked tofu to the bowl and mix to coat with the sauce
Pair the tofu with your favorite grain and vegetables, such as rice, edamame, avocado, and mushrooms
Notes
You can use one package of tofu instead of two, which will leave extra sauce for drizzling
Add more sriracha if you prefer a spicier flavor
