CAJUN TOFU



Cajun Tofu image

An easy baked tofu recipe loaded with cajun spices.

Provided by Lindsay Moe

Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons olive oil
1.5 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
1.5 teaspoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
14 ounces extra firm tofu (drained, pressed, and cut into about 12 strips)

Steps:

  • In a shallow dish (I used an 8x8 baking pan), combine the olive oil, soy sauce, maple syrup, and cajun seasoning.
  • Add the tofu and turn each piece over to coat it in the marinade. Arrange the tofu in a single layer and let marinate at least 15 minutes, turning once.
  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment or aluminum foil.
  • Transfer the tofu to the prepared baking sheet making sure you leave room between each piece so they're not touching. Bake 45-60 minutes, turning once, or until browned and crisp on the outside.

CAJUN TOFU



Cajun Tofu image

This was inspired by a recent trip to New Orleans. I wanted something vegetarian, but with Cajun taste & this is what I came up with. It's easy enough for a weeknight dinner, but tastes like you've been cooking a while. You can serve it over rice, pasta or, if you want to be really southern, grits.

From veganricha.com
  • Press the tofu (wrap in paper towel, then kitchen towel and place a couple of heavy books on it for 15 minutes or use a tofu press). Then slice into 1/4 inch thick slices. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix the cajun spices with lime juice, olive oil and salt to make a paste. Rub the cajun paste on the tofu and let it chill for at least 15 mins (to an hour) to pick up the flavor. * See Note.. Alternatively, toss the tofu (in cubes form) in olive oil, then toss in dry cajun spice blend + salt. (Drizzle lime juice later after baking).
  • Bake the Tofu at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve.
  • Meanwhile, make the cilantro lime rice: Wash and soak the rice for atleast 15 minutes. (I usually do this along with tofu pressing, so the rice and tofu are ready around the same time).
