-
1 (16 ounce) package extra firm tofu
0.5 (1 1/4 ounce) package chipotle-flavored marinade (Use McCormick's Grill Mates)
1 lime, juice of, to be divided
4 dashes hot sauce (I used Franks, use what you like. adjust to your liking)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 -2 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Preparation
-
Slice tofu into 4-5 slices. Wrap the tofu in paper towl and press for 20-30 minutes under some heavy cans on a cookie sheet.
When tofu is done pressing, mix 1/2 the packet of marinade mix, garlic powder, hot sauce, oil, water, and 1/2 the lime juice in a small bowl. Add more water if it seems too thick. The garlic and hot sauce can be adjusted to your liking.
Place tofu in shallow pan or plate and cover with the marinade, turning to coat. Let marinade for 10 minutes.
Grill on a grill pan or outdoor grill on medium-high heat until searing marks are on both sides, and outside becomes crispy. About 10 minutes.
Using a wedge or two of the remaining lime, sprinkle the juice over the cooked tofu for extra zing.
