Preparation

  1. Prep Tofu. Remove the tofu from the package and pat dry. Cut into desired cube shapes and divide the tofu between 4 different airtight containers and prepare the accompanying sauces to go with each tofu block.
  2. Add all of the cilantro lime ingredients to a small bowl and whisk together to emulsify.
  3. Pour over tofu and allow to sit and marinade for at least an hour.
  4. Heat up a skillet over medium heat then heat up your oil. Once warm, remove the tofu from the marinade and place in the skillet to pan fry for 2-3 minutes on each side.
  5. You can serve the tofu in tacos along with sauteed peppers and onions. Reserve the marinade as a drench sauce that you can pour over the tofu tacos for extra flavor when serving.
