Method

Preparation and Cooking

Prepare the Tofu

Press the firm tofu to remove excess water, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.

Make the Marinade

In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger.

Marinate the Tofu

Add the tofu cubes to the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Prepare the Vegetables

In a separate bowl, toss the chopped bell peppers, sliced zucchini, and cherry tomatoes with salt and pepper.

Assemble the Skewers

Thread the marinated tofu and the seasoned vegetables onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating between tofu and vegetables.

Grill the Skewers

Preheat the grill to medium heat and place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the tofu is golden and the vegetables are tender.

Serve

Remove the skewers from the grill and serve hot, optionally with extra soy sauce or sesame oil for dipping.
