- 1, 12 oz. block extra firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon liquid aminos you can use tamari or reduced sodium soy sauce instead.
- 2 teaspoons salt free all-purpose seasoning
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
Freeze tofu overnight, thaw and pat dry with a paper towel or dishcloth.
Press tofu in a tofu press or wrap in a dishcloth for 1 hour to remove most of the liquid.
Cut into strips and lay them out on a clean surface. Add liquid aminos, all-purpose chicken blend, paprika, and cumin to both sides of the tofu strips.
Allow this to marinate for about an hour in the refrigerator.
Preheat oven to 350ºF (175ºC) and grease your baking tray with oil. To make this recipe completely oil free, omit the oil and use a non-stick baking tray or silicone baking sheet.
Place strips of tofu on the baking tray leaving adequate space between the pieces. Bake for ten minutes then remove the tofu to add the mango pineapple sauce.
Brush on a generous amount of sauce on both sides of the tofu strips.
Drizzle the sauce over your final plate and serve.
