Ingredients

  • 2 14 Ounce Blocks Extra Firm Tofu
  • 2 Tablespoons Liquid Aminos or Tamari or Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Canned Coconut Milk
  • 3 Cloves Minced Garlic
  • ¼ Teaspoon Ground Ginger

Peanut Sauce

  • ¼ Cup Unsweetened Oil-Free Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 1 Tablespoon Liquid Aminos or Tamari or Soy Sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • ⅛-1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne
  • ⅛ Teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • Water

Instructions

  • Soak 8 wooden skewers in water.
  • Cut each block of tofu into 6 long strips.
  • Mix the liquid aminos, coconut milk, garlic, and ginger.
  • Drizzle the strips with the marinade. Let the tofu sit for 15 minutes, to absorb the marinade.
  • Meanwhile, make peanut sauce. Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Adjust the spice/sweetness to your taste.
  • Preheat grill or griddle to medium high heat. Thread the tofu onto skewers.
  • Cook 4-5 minutes per side, using a splash of water or leftover marinade if the skewers start to stick. If you are using a grill, you may need to brush on a bit of oil.
  • Serve with the peanut sauce. Enjoy!
