TOFU TACOS



Tofu Tacos image

Firm tofu, pressed to remove excess water and seared until crisp, makes a satisfying taco filling when topped with all the fixings. Your Taco Tuesday (or Meatless Monday) will never be the same!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces firm tofu, drained and cut into 8 slices
4 cups shredded coleslaw mix
1 small bunch radishes, thinly sliced
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1 bunch scallions, sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 limes, 1 zested and juiced, 1 cut into wedges
1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
Eight 8-inch whole wheat tortillas
1/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella or pepper jack cheese
1/4 cup jarred salsa verde

Steps:

  • Lay the tofu slices flat on a stack of paper towels; top with more paper towels, then put a heavy skillet on top to press out the excess water, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the coleslaw, radishes, cilantro, scallions, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the lime zest and half of the lime juice in a large bowl. Mix the yogurt with the remaining lime juice in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
  • Brush the tofu on all sides with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with the taco seasoning. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, then add the tofu and cook until it begins to crisp, about 5 minutes; flip and cook 2 more minutes. Cut into strips.
  • Toast the tortillas in a dry skillet, 1 minute per side, or wrap in a damp towel and microwave, 1 minute. Fill with the tofu, cheese and slaw, then drizzle with the yogurt sauce and salsa. Serve with the lime wedges.

  • In the bottom of a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon olive oil, soy sauce, chili powder, chipotle chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. Crumble the tofu into small pieces in the bowl. With a fork, stir to combine. The tofu should be in small bits. Toss until the tofu is evenly coated with the spices. I find it fastest and easiest to use my hands.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium high. Add the tofu crumbles. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is dry and the moisture has cooked off, about 6 minutes. Add the black beans, salsa, and nutritional yeast. Cook until warmed through and the salsa liquid has cooked off, about 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • Spread the tofu mixture into an even layer. Place under the broiler and cook until darkened on top, about 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, stir to expose new parts of the tofu to the top, then spread back into a single layer. Return to the oven and broil 4 additional minutes. Remove from the oven and repeat the stirring and broiling once more (3 times total). Pile the filling inside warm tortillas and top with all of your favorite fixings.

  • Drain the tofu container, then pat the tofu dry with a clean dish towel. Place the tofu in a large bowl and use your fingers to break the tofu into roughly bite-sized crumbles. (It might be a little cold on your hands: don’t worry, it should only take a few seconds!). Stir in the soy sauce, vinegar, salt, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick skillet. Add the tofu and cook on medium high for 8 to 10 minutes, breaking up large pieces into bite sized chunks and stirring occasionally, until browned and lightly crispy and the liquid evaporates. (The exact timing depends on the tofu brand.)
  • Thinly slice the red cabbage, and place it in a bowl. Spritz with the juice of 2 lime wedges and add a few pinches kosher salt. Mix the vegan yogurt with Mexican hot sauce to taste, and add a few pinches of salt.
  • Warm the tortillas: Warm and char the tortillas by placing them on an open gas flame on medium for a few seconds per side, flipping with tongs, until they are slightly blackened and warm. (See How to Warm Tortillas.)
