Kitchen Tools Needed

Measuring Spoons

Measuring Cups

Baking Sheet

Cutting Board

Small Bowl

Skillet


Ingredients

  • 14 oz block firm or extra firm tofu
  • 1 tsp paprika 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  •  1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
  • 3 whole wheat buns

Instructions


Press the Tofu: Place the tofu on a baking sheet, top with a cutting board, and weigh it down with something heavy. Let it press for 30 minutes to remove excess water.


Cut and Season: Chop the tofu into 1/2-inch pieces. In a bowl, mix the spices, sprinkle over the tofu, and gently toss until coated.


Coat and Cut: Add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch to the tofu, fold to coat, and repeat twice more for an even layer. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until firm and browned on the edges.


Add BBQ Sauce: Remove the tofu from the heat, stir in the BBQ sauce, and coat evenly.


Assemble the Sliders: Divide the BBQ tofu among three buns and serve
