Ingredients You Need for Cajun Blackened Tofu [Vegan]
How to Prepare Cajun Blackened Tofu [Vegan]
- Start by preheating your oven to 425˚F or 400˚F if using convection. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make the homemade Cajun blackened seasoning if you haven’t already done so and set it aside.
- Slice tofu in half width-wise creating two equal large pieces. Then cut each of those pieces in half length-wise so that you end up with four equal pieces.
- Season each piece of tofu with a little soy sauce if you prefer then coat all sides of the tofu with the blackened seasoning.
- Place the seasoned tofu on the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes. Flip the tofu and bake for another 15 minutes. You’re looking for the edges to darken and a slight crust to form on the tofu so the seasoning should be dry. All appliances are different so you may need to adjust the cooking time.
- Once the tofu is done baking it’s time to build the sandwich!
- Toast the buns, add one piece of blackened tofu per bun, and 1/4 cup of sriracha coleslaw. Use any other toppings you prefer. If you prefer a larger sandwich use two pieces of tofu and per sandwich like the photos above.
Notes
NOTE: Feel free to cook the tofu in preheated nonstick skillet after baking just to let it crisp up a little more. The “burnt” essence of this recipe is very nice. This step is not necessary, but it's worth it.
