Ingredients:
For the Tofu Kabobs:
- 1 block of firm or extra-firm tofu, pressed and cubed
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 red onion, cut into chunks
- 1 zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
- 1 cup of cherry tomatoes
- Wooden or metal skewers
For the Curry Marinade:
- 1/4 cup of coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 2 tablespoons of soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon of maple syrup or agave nectar
- 1 tablespoon of curry powder
- 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon of ground coriander
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Prepare the Tofu:
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Make the Marinade:
In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, olive oil, soy sauce or tamari, maple syrup or agave nectar, curry powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Marinate the Tofu:
Add the tofu cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the tofu to absorb the flavors.
Prepare the Vegetables:
While the tofu is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting them into chunks or slices, suitable for skewering.
Assemble the Kabobs:
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated tofu and vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between tofu, bell peppers, onion, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes.
Grill the Kabobs:
Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the tofu is golden and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
Serve and Enjoy:
Remove the kabobs from the grill and serve hot. These kabobs are perfect on their own, or you can serve them with a side of rice, a fresh salad, or some naan bread for a complete meal.
