Valmistusohje

Vaihe vaiheelta

1
Press the extra-firm tofu for at least 30 minutes to remove excess water, then slice it into four even steaks, about 1 inch thick.
Kokin vinkki: Pressing the tofu ensures a firmer texture and better absorption of flavors.
2
In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, cayenne pepper (if using), black pepper, and salt to create the Cajun spice blend.
Noin 2 min
3
Dredge each tofu steak thoroughly in the Cajun spice blend, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
Noin 3 min
Kokin vinkki: Gently press the spices onto the tofu to help them adhere.
4
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Noin 2 min
Kokin vinkki: A hot pan is crucial for achieving a good 'blackened' crust.
5
Carefully place the coated tofu steaks into the hot skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
6
Sear the tofu for 3-4 minutes per side, until a dark, crispy crust forms and the tofu is heated through.
Noin 8 min
Kokin vinkki: Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning while still achieving a good sear.
7
Remove the blackened tofu steaks from the skillet and serve immediately.
