Instructions

  1. Wrap tofu in a few paper towels, place on a plate then put a cast iron skillet or other heavy pan over tofu to drain for 10 minutes.
  2. Once drained crumble tofu into small bits.
  3. In a large mixing bowl whisk together 1 Tbsp olive oil, the soy sauce, garlic, chili powder, ancho chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, and cayenne pepper.
  4. Add tofu to spice mixture and toss to evenly coat.
  5. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil in a 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook, tossing only occasionally so it has a chance to brown, about 7 to 9 minutes.
  6. Off heat drizzle in lime juice, season with salt and pepper to taste and toss.
  7. Serve tofu taco filling over warmed tortillas with desired toppings of choice.

Notes

  • *To heat tortillas I like to cook them in a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a little olive oil until lightly golden brown on each side then drain on paper towels.
  • Nutrition estimate does not include toppings as this will vary depending on what and how much you use.
