Spicy Baked Tofu

Ingredients

• 1 (12 ounce) package tofu
• 2 tablespoons Japanese low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Asian chili sauce
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
• 1 ½ tablespoons hoisin sauce
• cooking spray

Instructions

1. Cover a plate with two paper towels. Place tofu on top and cover with two more paper towels. Place a heavy plate over the stack and let sit until liquid emerges from tofu, 5 to 30 minutes. Cut tofu into 1/2-inch strips.
2. Combine soy sauce, chili sauce, ginger, and hoisin sauce in a large resealable plastic bag. Add tofu, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
4. Remove tofu from marinade and shake off excess. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Discard remaining marinade.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until firm, 30 to 35 minutes, flipping halfway through.
