Equipment

Ingredients 

Grilled Succotash

  • 2 tablespoons butter, use vegan butter or coconut oil for non-dairy version
  • 3 corn cobs, kernels removed
  • 2 jalapeños, seeded
  • 3-4 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper, orange or yellow, chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon of red pepper flakes, or more to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 cup frozen lima beans, thawed
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

BBQ Tofu Kebobs

  • 1 package, 12 ounces extra firm tofu, cubed (into roughly 24 cubes, make them big enough to fit on skewers)
  • ½ cup prepared BBQ sauce

Instructions

  • Prep the kebobs. Place the cubed tofu in a large bowl with the BBQ sauce. Toss a few times to evenly cover the cubes, then place in the fridge to sit for at least 30 minutes. 
  • When you are ready to cook, preheat the grill to medium heat. Place a cast iron pan (or other grill safe pan) on right after lighting the grill, so it heats up as the grill does. 
  • Skewer the tofu cubes and set aside. I use these small skewers that fit 3-4 cubes per skewer, I find that they are easier to flip on the grill. 
  • Add in the butter/oil to the pan until just melted, then add in the corn. Close the grill and let cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until corn has cooked down and is slightly browned.
  • Add in the chopped peppers, garlic, and spices, then let cook an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then, add in the lima beans and tomatoes. 
  • While the succotash finishes cooking, grill the kebobs. Place the kebobs onto a lightly greased grill and cook 2-3 minutes per side, basting with additional BBQ sauce if desired. 
  • Serve grilled succotash and tofu kebobs! Be careful when transporting the pan from the grill to the table- it's hot!
