Step 1
Press the tofu: Wrap the block of tofu in paper towels. Place a plate or pan on top of the wrapped tofu, and put a couple of heavy books on top of that. Let the tofu press for 30 minutes, or up to an hour.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce, avocado oil, seasoned rice vinegar, sesame oil and garlic powder to combine.
Step 3
Slice the tofu into thick slices, about 4 slices per block of tofu. Place in a large shallow dish (or large ziplock type bag), then pour the marinade over the tofu.
Step 4
Cover and place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour, or even overnight. The longer you marinate, the more flavor. But I wouldn't go over 24 hours.
Step 5
Preheat an outdoor grill (or indoor grill pan) over medium-high heat and lightly oil. Remove the tofu from the marinade (but keep it nearby) and place on the hot grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown marks appear. Turn with a metal spatula or fork, carefully loosening the tofu from the grate. Cook 5-7 minutes on the other side, then transfer to a platter and cover to keep warm.
Step 6
If desired, pour the reserved marinade into a saucepan and simmer for about 3 minutes. Pour as much as desired over the tofu for even more flavor and serve.
