INGREDIENTS
400g Extra Firm Tofu
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Dried Thyme
1/2 Lemon (zest & juice)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 20 minutes to remove excess moisture, then slice it into steak-like pieces about 1/2 inch thick.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, dried thyme, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
Gently coat each tofu steak with the herb marinade on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the tofu steaks. Pan-sear each side for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Reduce heat slightly if needed to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
Plate the tofu steaks and garnish with a sprinkle of extra herbs or a light drizzle of any leftover marinade. Serve warm.
