Ingredients

Serves:

    • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
    • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
    • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    • 1 teaspoon chopped chipotle in adobo sauce
    • 1 tablespoon plus 1/4 cup sugar, divided
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
    • 1 small head red cabbage, about 1 1/2 pounds, shredded
    • 2 large carrots, about 1 pound, peeled, trimmed and shredded
    • 1 bunch scallions, greens and whites, chopped
    • 2 teaspoons chili powder
    • 3/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
    • 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
    • 1 pound extra-firm tofu, weighted and drained, cut into 12 equal-sized blocks

Directions

Whisk together vinegar, oil, mustard, chipotle in adobo, 1/4 cup sugar, salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk to incorporate. Toss with cabbage and carrots and reserve.

Preheat a lightly oiled grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Combine brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. Press tofu pieces into spice mixture, coating well on all sides. Grill tofu until grill marks form, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from grill and reserve.

Distribute slaw among four plates, and top each plate with three pieces of grilled tofu.

Whoa! How about just spicy -- there is so much sugar in this recipe, it overwhelms the healthiness of the tofu and cabbage. Just a tablespoon or two of sugar total would be enough for flavor.
