1
First you will need to freeze the tofu a couple of days before you make this.
-
2
Make sure that it gets frozen all the way through.
-
3
Then I just pull it out of the freezer the morning that Im going to make it.
-
4
This helps the tofu to hold together better and not crumble apart.
-
5
You can buy extra firm, but its still best to freeze it.
-
6
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Take a baking sheet and spread about 1/4 cup of oil on it or less.
-
7
You just want there to be a thin layer of oil.
-
8
If you want to go healthier, you can use cooking spray instead.
-
9
Cut your tofu into 1/3-1/2 inch slices.
-
10
Make sure you squeeze out as much of the liquid as possible from it.
-
11
Set your tofu aside.
-
12
Gather up the rest of your ingredients (except the BBQ sauce) and put them together in a bowl.
-
13
Whisk these together until the mixture is smooth.
-
14
Now its time for the sauce to meet the tofu.
-
15
You can pour it over the tofu or do what I do and dump the tofu in the sauce youve made.
-
16
Push the strips into the sauce and make sure that you completely cover them with the sauce.
-
17
When your tofu is ready, lay it out in a single layer on your baking sheet.
-
18
Bake the tofu for about 25 minutes.
-
19
Then pull it out and flip it over.
-
20
The bottoms should be slightly browned.
-
21
Now take your BBQ sauce and brush some over the top of the tofu.
-
22
Put it back in the oven and bake another 25 minutes.
-
23
Pull it out and flip it over again.
-
24
Put BBQ sauce on the top again, which will be the side that doesnt have sauce on it!
-
25
Put it back in the oven and bake it for about 15 minutes.
-
26
Pull it out and you are done!
