Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
🥧Marinate the Tofu
In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Add the tofu cubes and toss gently to coat. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes.
🥧Bake the Tofu
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread the marinated tofu cubes in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tofu is golden and crispy.
