Seared Citrus-Garlic-Herb Tofu
This beautifully balanced vegan dish is packed full of nutrients and boasts big, deep, punchy flavors. Chef Cora marinates extra-firm tofu in a bright blend of lemon, orange, garlic, and oregano. A hearty portion of seared slices are plated atop couscous, which she toasts with fragrant turmeric to add depth and sophistication to a very humble ingredient, then tosses with dried currants for sweetness and toasted almonds for nutty crunch. On the side: soft, silky, garlicky spinach and a lemon wedge for that perfect finishing touch. Getting half your daily protein never tasted so good!
