Recipe Introduction

Chilled Lime Tofu with Stewed Tomatoes and Black Beans Serves 4

List of Ingredients

1/2 pound firm tofu
1 1/2 cups lime juice
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped fine
1 14-ounce can stewed tomatoes
1 14-ounce can black beans
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh garlic, chopped fine
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons kosher salt


Recipe

Set about 2 teaspoons of the cilantro aside before dicing tofu into 1/2-inch cubes and tossing with the remaining cilantro and 1 teaspoon salt. Add enough lime juice to cover and chill while you continue cooking. Drain beans and have ready. Add 1 tablespoon oil to a hot pan, then garlic. Heat for a moment before adding red pepper flakes. Add black beans and salt to taste. Once beans are hot, place in warm bowls and cover to keep warm. Return the pan to the stove and add the second tablespoon oil, dried oregano, and tomatoes. Heat tomatoes to a simmer, crushing them as they cook, and cook for about 5 minutes or until they've reduced slightly. Make a well in the middle of the beans and spoon in the tomatoes. Finish on top with the chilled lime tofu. Garnish with remaining chopped
cilantro and serve.
