Spicy and flavorful tofu, these copycat "Sofritas" are a perfect addition to your taco bar!  So good, you'd swear you got it at Chipotle Mexican Grill!

I personally like these "Sofritas" when served on some rice, black beans, corn, and a handful of Violife cheese on top!  Some sliced green peppers help to add some color and a little bit of a refreshing crunch!

Recipe

Ingredients

2 chipotle peppers, canned in adobo sauce
2 tablespoons adobo sauce
3 garlic cloves
1 medium onion, diced
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup your preferred salsa
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
14 ounce package extra firm tofu

Directions

  1. Place chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, salsa, and half of the onion in a food processor and blend until mostly smooth.
  2. Cut the tofu into 6 slices and using a clean towel, soak up all of the excess moisture.  You want the tofu to be as dry as possible for the best results.   
  3. in a large saucepan, heat the sunflower oil over medium-high.  Add the remaining onion and sauté until softened.  Then add the tofu and cook until it begins to brown slightly.  Scramble with a wooden spoon. 
  4. Add the sofrita sauce to the tofu and simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened a bit and the Sofritas are heated.
  5. Remove from heat, serve and enjoy!
