Grilled Tofu With Chimichurri Sauce and Avocado Cucumber Salad image

I found this recipe in in a waiting room magazine and am posting here to try later. Looking around on the internet, the sauce can also be used on steaks, chicken, pork or fish ... I think on just about anything you want. I apologize for the initial post with most of the instructions missing. I tried to put it together again without the recipe in front of me (no longer have it). Instructions may need adjustment as I haven't made it yet and can't quite remember how it went.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (15 ounce) package firm tofu
4 slices whole-grain bread
1/2 cup red onion, minced
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup sherry wine vinegar
2 tablespoons oregano, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced

fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
squeeze lemon
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil (for drizzling)

Steps:

I'm not a huge fan of tofu, but this recipe was amazing! The tofu was grilled to perfection and the chimichurri sauce was so flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tofu turned out really dry. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I will definitely be making it again, but I will use less chili pepper next time.
