Cooking Steps
- Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and stock powder to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, combine Moroccan Spice Blend, half the garlic salt and half the yogurt in a large bowl. (NOTE: Reserve remaining yogurt for sauce in step 3.)
- Pat tofu dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Using a fork, poke tofu all over.
- Add tofu to the large bowl with yogurt marinade. Toss to coat.
- Once boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low.
- Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
- Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Roughly chop parsley.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 ppl). Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Add remaining yogurt, lemon juice and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar to a small bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. Set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Cook until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side.
- Remove the pan from heat, then transfer tofu to an unlined baking sheet.
- Roast in the middle of the oven until golden, 10-14 min.
- Carefully rinse and wipe the pan clean.
- Reheat the same pan over medium-high.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then zucchini and peppers. Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min.
- Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper.
- Fluff rice with a fork, then add lemon zest, half the parsley and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Season with salt, then stir to combine.
- Thinly slice tofu.
- Divide zesty rice between plates. Top with veggies and tofu.
- Spoon lemony yogurt over tofu. Sprinkle remaining parsley over top.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if desired.
If you've opted to get tofu, pat tofu dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Using a fork, poke tofu all over. Add tofu to the large bowl with yogurt marinade. Toss to coat.
