Step 1
Take tofu from the package, pat it dry with kitchen paper, and cut it into ¼ inch (7 mm) slices.Tip: there's no need to press the tofu.
Step 2
Transfer the tofu slices onto a plate and toss with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.Make sure the tofu is fully coated in the oil on all sides.Tip: there's no need to marinate. It's best to add a tasty sauce later.
Step 3
Ensure your grill is clean, then warm it up.Grill the tofu on medium heat for 3 minutes without touching it.Turn the slices around with the help of a flat spatula and grill for 3 more minutes on the other side till golden and slighlty charred outside.Tip: At this stage you can sprinkle with your favorite spices like smoke paprika, za'atar, cayenne pepper, or other.
Step 4
The best way to add flavor to grilled tofu is to serve it with a tasty sauce. Our favorites are peanut sauce, sesame sauce, BBQ sauce, and Chimichurri sauce. Instructions in the serving suggestions chapter above.
