Ingredients
– 1 block (14 oz) extra-firm tofu, cut into 1-inch cubes
– 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
– 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
– 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 tablespoons lemon juice
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander

– Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
– In a large bowl, combine the cubed tofu, bell pepper pieces, and onion pieces.
– In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, coriander, and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and black pepper.
– Pour the marinade over the tofu and vegetables and toss gently to coat everything evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
– Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
– Thread the marinated tofu and vegetables onto skewers, making sure to evenly distribute the ingredients.

– Serve the Middle Eastern Tofu Kebabs immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or cilantro if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
For best results, use extra-firm or super-firm tofu that holds its shape well during grilling. You can also bake the kebabs in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.
