INGREDIENTS
300g Extra Firm Tofu
50g Canned Chickpeas (drained)
100g Bell Pepper
100g Zucchini
50g Red Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 10 minutes to remove excess water, then cut it into 1/2-inch thick steaks.
In a small blender or food processor, combine the drained chickpeas, nutritional yeast, mixed fresh herbs, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth to create a thick marinade.
Lightly coat the tofu steaks with the chickpea-herb marinade. Let them sit for 5-10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Toss the vegetables lightly in olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of herbs if desired.
Spread the vegetables out on the baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
While the vegetables roast, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the marinated tofu steaks in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a crispy, golden exterior.
Serve the crispy herbed tofu steaks alongside the roasted vegetables. Enjoy this nutrient-packed meal that's both satisfying and vibrant in flavor.
