    4 tablespoons olive oil

    carefully place marinated tofu in pan, and fry until golden, crispy edges form.
    remove tofu. pour off excess oil if you feel there's too much left in the pan.
    remove to plate to rest, and drizzle with remaining marinade for extra spice, if desired.
    add garlic to pan and fry until it just begins to turn golden.
    quickly add chard and salt. it might be a good idea to chop the stems a little smaller than the leaves, so the cooking time is similar.
