Lemony Baked Tofu - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (16 ounce) package firm tofu
    Spicy Cilantro Lemon Marinade
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    3 tablespoons olive oil (or vegetable oil)
    1/2 cup water
    1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
    1 tablespoon minced scallion
    1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce (or 1 fresh green chile, seeded, minced)
    Rosemary Lemon Marinade
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    3 tablespoons olive oil (or vegetable oil)
    1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary (or 1 tsp. dried, crumbled)
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 400*F.
    Cut the tofu cake horizontally into four slices and set aside. Choose a marinade and whisk together all ingredients until smooth. Pour half in a small nonreactive baking pan. Place the tofu slices in the pan and pour on the remaining marinade.
    Bake 45-60 minutes, turning the tofu once after about 30 minutes. The baked tofu should be browned, bubbling, and curling up at the edges.
    Remove from the oven and with a metal spatula, move the tofu slices to a serving platter.
    Serve hot, warm, at room temperature, or chilled.
    The tofu will keep in an airtight contaiiner or plastic bag in the fridge for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
