Directions
Baked Toficken Nuggets (Vegetarian Chicken Nuggets), I’ve made these a few times now, with different seasonings, and I think I have the technique down perfectly The key is to freeze and thaw your tofu before you use it– this gives it chewiness I actually freeze all my tofu because I like it this way in all my recipes For this, I have used poultry seasoning, sazon, Cajun spice blend all with good results Be gentle if you add extra salt, as many seasoning mixes are very salty on their own Cooking time doesn’t include freezing, thawing, or marinating time , I enjoyed this, but you have to at least like tofu’s texture for this one Even with freezing and thawing and pressing, this still had that tell-tale sponginess I cheated after baking, as I couldn’t get the coating to crisp up, and so I did finish these by frying in a skillet Next time I’m splurging on carbs, I’ll keep the marinade, but use panko rather than the cornmeal/starch mixture to see if it crisps up better in the oven I only had Greek yogurt, so I added some buttermilk to thin this out a bit Other than that (and the frying) I followed the recipe Thanks for sharing , I am in charge of catering for a sorority and this recipe is a hit for our vegetarian members Our cook omited the yogurt and soaked the tofu in soy sauce for a vegan version which is fantastic
