Ingredients

  • - 1 block (14 oz) extra-firm tofu, pressed and drained
  • - 2 medium chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • - 1/4 cup adobo sauce from can
  • - 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • - 1 large yellow onion, finely diced
  • - 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • - 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • - 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • - 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. 11. Crumble tofu into rough, small pieces resembling ground meat texture.
  2. 22. Blend chipotle peppers and adobo sauce in food processor until smooth, creating a vibrant red-brown sauce.
  3. 33. Heat olive oil in large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté diced onions until translucent and slightly caramelized, about 5-6 minutes.
  4. 44. Add minced garlic, cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. 55. Add crumbled tofu to skillet, spreading evenly. Allow to brown without stirring for 3-4 minutes, creating crispy edges.
  6. 66. Stir in tomato paste, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
  7. 77. Pour chipotle-adobo sauce over tofu mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, allowing flavors to develop and sauce to slightly thicken.
  8. 88. Finish with chopped cilantro, stirring gently to incorporate.
