Honey Mustard Tofu Grilled
- Quick to make – under 30 minutes!
- Gluten-free and plant-based for everyone.
- Packed with flavor from honey and mustard marinade.
Ingredients
- 14 oz firm tofu, drained and pressed
- 3 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
How to Make
To create a delectable Honey Mustard Tofu Grill, start by slicing the firm tofu into even rectangular pieces (about half an inch thick). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Once the marinade is mixed well, add the tofu slices, ensuring they’re adequately coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or longer if you have time) to absorb all the flavors. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill each tofu slice for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and grill marks appear. Once grilled, remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot!
Tips
- Pressing the tofu eliminates excess moisture, allowing better marination.
- Feel free to customize the marinade by adding spices like cayenne or paprika for extra kick!
- For extra depth of flavor, consider marinating overnight in the refrigerator.
Make-Ahead
You can easily prepare the marinade in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Marinate the tofu slices the night before, letting them soak in the delicious flavors until dinner.
Storing
Leftover grilled tofu can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Freezing
If you want to make a larger batch, grilled tofu can be frozen. Pack it in freezer-safe bags, removing as much air as possible. It can last up to 3 months.
Reheating
Reheat grilled tofu in a skillet over medium heat or microwave for a quick meal. Ensure it’s heated through, especially if frozen.
Serving Suggestions
This Honey Mustard Tofu Grilled pairs wonderfully with brown rice, quinoa, or a fresh green salad. It can be enjoyed as a main dish or sliced and added to a wrap for a tasty lunch.
For your grilling adventures, consider investing in quality grilling tools, such as this grill pan to achieve the best results.
