A delightful vegan alternative to bacon, these crispy smoky tofu strips are perfect for breakfast or as a snack.
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then slice it into thin strips.
Pressing the tofu ensures it absorbs the marinade better, enhancing the flavor.
In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, liquid smoke, and brown sugar to create the marinade.
Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved for a consistent marinade.
Marinate the tofu strips in the mixture for at least 15 minutes.
The longer you marinate, the more intense the flavor will be.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly oil it.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the tofu to achieve a crispy texture.
Cook the tofu strips in the skillet for about 5 minutes on each side until crispy.
Flip the strips carefully to keep them intact.
Sprinkle nutritional yeast and black pepper over the tofu strips while still in the skillet.
Coating the tofu while hot helps the yeast adhere better.
Serve the crispy tofu strips warm and enjoy.
Pair with your favorite vegan sides for a complete meal.
