Grilled Tofu with Garlic Broccoli and Mediterranean Herb Marinade

Directions

Marinate the Tofu:

• In a bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to create the Mediterranean herb marinade. 
• Slice the tofu block into two equal pieces to form tofu “steaks.” 
• Place the tofu steaks in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. 
• Pour the marinade over the tofu, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. 

Prepare the Garlic Broccoli: 

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). 
• In a large bowl, toss the broccoli florets with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons minced garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. 
• Spread the seasoned broccoli florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. 
• Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and lightly browned, stirring halfway through cooking. 

Grill the Tofu: 

• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. 
• Remove the tofu steaks from the marinade and discard any excess marinade. 
• Grill the tofu steaks for 4-5 minutes per side or until grill marks appear and the tofu is heated through. 

Serve: 

• Divide the garlic broccoli between two plates. 
• Place a grilled tofu steak on top of each plate. 
• Garnish with fresh herbs, such as chopped parsley or basil, if desired, and serve.
