Ingredients
-
1/2 pound firm light tofu, cut into 1/2" slices
1/4 medium onion, sliced
1/4 red bell pepper, sliced
1/4 green bell pepper, sliced
1 tablespoons white wine
1/2 large clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 Pinch of allspice
1/2 can (14 ounces) stewed tomatoes, drained
1 teaspoons tomato paste
Sprig rosemary, for garnish
Directions
Cover a 17" X 11" baking sheet with paper towels. Place the tofu in a single layer on the towels. Cover the tofu with paper towels and pat down on the tofu until dry. Remove and discard all of the paper towels and place the tofu back on the baking sheet.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Heat a large skillet coated with olive oil cooking spray over medium heat. Add the onion and bell peppers and cook, stirring frequently, for
5 minutes. Add the wine, garlic, basil, oregano, and allspice and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and tomato paste. Bring to a boil and allow to simmer for 15 minutes.
Heat another large skillet coated with olive oil cooking spray over medium heat. Add the tofu and sauté for 3 minutes, or until lightly browned on both sides. Place the browned tofu slices in a 13" X 9" baking dish and cover with the tomato sauce.
Bake for 1 hour, or until cooked through. Garnish with the rosemary.
