Description

Ingredients

• The Marinade:
• 4 tbsp water
• 2 tbsp tamari
• 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp thyme,
• 1 tsp nutritional yeast
• ¼ tsp pepper
• ¼ tsp salt
• The Crispy Coating:
• ¾ cup whole wheat panko bread crumbs
• ¼ cup wheat germ
• 2 tbsp poultry seasoning
• ¼ tsp dried coriander
• ¼ tsp ginger
• ¼ tsp smoked paprika
• ¼ tsp salt
• ⅛ tsp cloves
• ⅛ tsp cumin
• The Rest:
• 1 square block of tofu (350 g or .77 lb)

Directions

• Press your tofu in a tofu press or by wrapping it in a towel and placing something heavy on top of it for about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile mix all of your marinade ingredients in a small dish.
• In a separate medium sized bowl combine all of the Crispy Coating ingredients.
• Cut the tofu into 4 equal slabs.
• Place the cut tofu into the marinade. Gently poke a few holes in the tofu to let the marinade seep in. Spoon the marinade over the tofu to ensure it’s well covered and then allow it to marinate for at least 45 minutes. Turn over once after about 20 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 400F (200C) and cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Dip each piece of marinated tofu into the Crispy Coating mix and ensure it’s well coated. Place each piece on the parchment paper.
• Cover the pan loosely with foil and bake for about 25 minutes.
• Remove the foil and cook for another 5 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and thinly slice each piece of tofu on an angle.
• Serve with The Best Darned Gravy Ive Ever Had (see link up above).
