Lemon Herb Tofu
Ingredients
3 ½ tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
2 tbsp organic tamari (reduced-sodium or coconut aminos)
1 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp dried thyme (or dried rosemary)
½ tsp dried basil
2 pinches ground black pepper (+1 pinch as desired)
12 oz extra-firm organic tofu (cut into squares about 1⁄4–1⁄2” thick, and patted to remove excess moisture, see Chef’s Note)
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In an 8x12" baking dish, combine all ingredients (except tofu), and stir through until well incorporated.
2
Add the tofu and coat each side. Cover and bake for 15 minutes.
3
Turn the tofu over, and continue to bake uncovered for another 10–15 minutes, turning again when there are just a few minutes of cooking time remaining.
4
At this time, the tofu should have soaked up most of the marinade. Remove from oven and let cool a little before serving, or serve hot.
