Ingredients
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp chili powder (add more for preference)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp Himalayan pink sea salt, to taste
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 16 oz extra firm tofu drained, patted dry, torn into bite- sized pieces
- 3 scallions, chopped
- 1/4 cup Betr BBQ Sauce
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425° F. Spritz a jelly roll pan (rimmed baking sheet) with avocado oil. Alternatively, use a paper towel to wipe a light coat of avocado oil on the inside of the pan. Avoid using commercial oil sprays as they are often full of other ingredients or substances
- In a large bowl, combine all spices. Slowly whisk in the 1 Tbsp of avocado oil until well combined. Gently toss tofu pieces in the mixture until they are evenly covered
- Arrange tofu pieces in a single layer on the baking sheet
- Roast tofu in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until the tofu is crispy around the edges
- Serve sprinkled with chopped scallions, or toss with ¼ cup Betr BBQ Sauce
