BBQ Tofu and Onion Skillet


I love how tofu takes on the flavor of whatever you cook it with. This recipe was so simple and delicious, my 5 year old couldn't get enough.

One special note about cooking with tofu, the more your press/drain it the more it can take on the flavor of what you are cooking it with. Take the time to properly drain your tofu and it's much more enjoyable!

2 TBSP Olive Oil
1 large onion, quartered and thinly sliced (Vidalia was delicious)
1 (16 oz) package extra-firm tofu, well drained and diced
1/2 c BBQ sauce (you can adjust this amount to your desire)

Heat oil in skillet. Add the onions and saute over med heat until golden. If your not in a hurry, cook them over very low heat to caramelize them.

Add the tofu and BBQ and turn the heat up to med-high. Use enough sauce to coat the tofu. Cook for 6-8 minutes.

I served mine over brown rice with a side of roasted cauliflower.
