Italian Marinated Tofu Recipes

ITALIAN MARINATED TOFU

Italian Marinated Tofu image

A simple marinated tofu recipe, great for a make-before simple lunch or even breakfast if you marinate the tofu before (I've only made this once, but I imagine if you marinate overnight it'll be a much stronger flavor). This comes from Isa Moskowitz' Vegan With A Vengeance book, slightly modified. Prep time is for the marinade, cook time for the actual cooking.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 lettuce wraps, 1-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/2 cup white wine
2 tablespoons olive oil (Extra Virgin if you have it)
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons Braggs liquid aminos
2 garlic cloves, chopped
4 leaves basil, torn up into small peices
1 teaspoon dried dill
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 lb firm tofu, about half a block, cut into small squares. The original recipe calls for a full pound of tofu, but

Steps:

Combine the Wine, Oil, Vinegar, Bragg's or Tamari, Garlic, Basil, Dill, And Oregano in a shallow bowl. Whisk lightly to combine, and place tofu squares into marinade. Swish to cover, then cover the bowl and leave alone for 30 minutes.
Flip. Leave alone for another 30 minutes.
Heat a medium skillet over high heat, pour a small amount of olive oil in and swirl til the skillet is covered.
Pour the marinade into the skillet, let it begin to heat. Place tofu squares (which now should be lightly gold-brown instead of the milky white it began as) into the skillet, and use a spatula to squish and cut the tofu into smaller peices.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes or until the marinade is basically gone.
If desired, cook until tofu is drier and darker. Or closer to burned, whichever. I stopped mine when it was golden and there was still a bit of liquids left.
Spoon out onto a plate and eat as is, or place a little in a lettuce leaf and wrap and eat, or eat on bread.
If desired, top with pepper, soy cheese shreds, broccoli sprouts, more dried spices, pasta sauce, mix with rice or vegetables, or basically anything.
Since this is an 'Italian' style marinade, consider matching it up with like foods.
However you take it, enjoy!
You can try doubling the recipe, if you do, please post how it went!

BAKED ITALIAN STYLE TOFU (TOASTER OVEN)

Baked Italian Style Tofu (Toaster Oven) image

My toaster oven has a fan in it and I love to use it to brown foods. I came up with this tofu recipe yesterday and I was delighted with the results. I served this with pasta and Marinara sauce.

Provided by Chef Joey Z.

Categories < 60 Mins

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 (14 ounce) packages firm tofu
1 large organic egg
2 -3 cups Italian style breadcrumbs
salt and pepper

Steps:

Preheat the toaster oven to 350'F
Line your toaster oven pan with tin foil and spray generously with coconut oil. I use coconut because it doesn't go rancid like other oils when they are heated.
Open the tofu packages and drain.
Break the egg in a shallow dish and beat it until combined.
Put the bread crumbs in a shallow dish.
Cut each of the tofu blocks in half the long way. This will give you 4 blocks total. If you like it thinner cut them into 3 so you have 6 pieces.
Dip in the egg, then the bread crumbs. Salt and pepper the tops.
Place on the prepared pan and spray each piece with oil generously.
Bake for 25-30 minutes. Check them periodically to make sure they aren't burning.
Serve with your favourite spaghetti sauce and pasta. You can even make them into a sandwich with toppings. This is very versatile.
Bon Appetit!
