Ingredients
- 5 ounces extra-firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon grill seasoning (such as Montreal Steak Seasoning®)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Press tofu block gently to release as much water as possible. Rub grill seasoning all over the block of tofu. Put into a resealable plastic bag and freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- Remove from the freezer and thaw on the counter until soft enough to cut. Slice in half lengthwise. Return to the bag, drizzle with olive oil, and seal. Rub the outside of the bag to help coat the tofu steaks with oil and seasoning. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- Heat a griddle or an outdoor grill over medium heat. Add tofu steaks and cook until crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn over and cook until the other side is crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve hot.
