Ingredients

  • 2 Blocks Extra Firm Tofu
  • 2 Tablespoons Liquid Aminos or Tamari or Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Canned Coconut Milk
  • 3 Cloves Minced Garlic
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Ground Ginger

Peanut Sauce

  • 1/4 Cup Unsweetened Oil-Free Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 1 Tablespoon Liquid Aminos or Tamari or Soy Sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • 1/8-1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne
  • 1/8 Teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • Water

Instructions

  1. Soak 8 wooden skewers in water.
  2. Cut each block of tofu into 6 long strips.
  3. Mix the liquid aminos, coconut milk, garlic, and ginger.
  4. Drizzle the strips with the marinade. Let the tofu sit for 15 minutes, to absorb the marinade.
  5. Meanwhile, make peanut sauce. Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Adjust the spice/sweetness to your taste.
  6. Preheat grill or griddle to medium high heat. Thread the tofu onto skewers.
  7. Cook 4-5 minutes per side, using a splash of water or leftover marinade if the skewers start to stick. If you are using a grill, you may need to brush on a bit of oil.
  8. Serve with the peanut sauce. Enjoy!
