Peppered Tofu Steaks

Unseasoned tofu never draws people over to the barbecue—that’s a fact. However, nobody can resist our delicious, peppery marinated tofu steaks—that’s a promise.

Peppered Tofu Steaks [Vegan]

Ingredients

• 2 garlic cloves
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons vegan Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon agave nectar
• 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground pink pepper
• 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
• 14 ounces frozen and thawed tofu

Preparation

1. For the marinade, mince the garlic and mix with the remaining ingredients, except the tofu, until smooth.
2. Cut the tofu into slices 0.78-inches thick, add them to the marinade and leave for 4 hours in the refrigerator.
3. Oil the grill and sear the tofu steaks over direct heat for 3 to 4 minutes each side, then finish cooking them over indirect heat with the lid closed for another 3 minutes each side. Baste often with the leftover marinade.

Notes

You can achieve attractive char marks if you sear the steaks on a cast-iron grill. It is best to use a particularly thin stainless steel spatula to turn them over.
