Tofu Cacciatore

 

Tofu (firm)

2 Tbs. Olive Oil

1 Medium Onion, Chopped

2 Cloves Garlic, Minced

1 Celery Stalk, Chopped

4 oz. Mushrooms, Chopped

½-Cup Dry White Wine (optional, but best if left in)

1 (14 oz) Can Chopped Tomatoes

½-Cup Vegetarian Chicken (flavored) Broth (you can buy this in

Asian

stores)

1 Tsp. Dried Oregano

1/4 Cup Fresh Chopped Parsley

Salt & Pepper

Pinch Of Red Pepper Flakes

Press the tofu and cut into pieces. Heat the oil in a large skillet

over medium heat, and brown the tofu pieces well on both sides. Remove

the tofu pieces to a plate. Add the mushrooms, onions and celery to

the pan, and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, and

cook another minute or two. Add the tofu back into the skillet, and

add the white wine. Cook on medium heat until the wine has almost

completely evaporated. Add in the chopped tomatoes, broth and

seasonings. Simmer, covered for about 30 minutes. If the sauce has not

thickened, remove the tofu pieces from the pan, and bring the sauce

mixture to a boil. Cook a few minutes until it has reduced and

thickened. Serve hot!

Ciao,

Jim
