Crispy Barbequed Tofu Slices Recipe

• 1 (16 ounce) package Extra Firm Tofu
• 3 tbsp Olive Oil
• 1 Egg White
• 1 tbsp Barbeque Sauce
• 1 cup All-purpose Flour
• 1 tsp Salt
• ½ tsp Pepper
• 1 cup Barbeque Sauce

• Drain tofu and cut into slices.
• Place the tofu slices in a plastic bag and freeze overnight.
• Remove the tofu slices before cooking and thaw them. Blot on paper towels to dry them.
• Place a large skillet over medium heat and heat olive oil in it.
• Combine together egg white and 1 tablespoon of barbeque sauce. Whisk well.
• Mix flour, salt and pepper in another bowl.
• Dip each tofu slice into the egg mixture and then into the flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour.
• Fry in the heated oil for about 1 minute on each side or until golden brown.
• Remove and drain on paper towels, to absorb excess oil.
• Preheat the oven’s broiler.
• Brush the tofu slices with the additional barbeque sauce and keep them aside for marinating.
• Arrange the slices over a cookie sheet and place on the broiler pan.
• Place the pan 6 inches away from the heat.
• Broil for 5 minutes on each side, until brown and crisp.
• Serve warm with the remaining barbeque sauce as a dip.
