Ingredients <br>- 1 (16 ounce) package extra firm tofu <br>- 3 tablespoons olive oil <br>- 1 egg white <br>- 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce <br>- 1 cup all-purpose flour <br>- 1 teaspoon salt <br>- ½ teaspoon pepper <br>- 1 cup barbeque sauce <br><p></p>Directions <br>step 1: Drain tofu, and slice into strips. Place in a plastic bag or container, and freeze overnight. This will give the tofu a meatier texture. Thaw tofu strips, and blot with paper towels to dry. <br>step 2: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg white and 1 tablespoon of barbeque sauce. Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Dip the tofu slices into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture, shaking off excess flour. Fry in the hot oil for about 1 minute on each side, until golden brown. Just fry enough at one time so they are not crowded. Remove from the oil to paper towels to drain and cool. <br>step 3: Preheat the oven's broiler. Brush tofu slices with additional barbeque sauce, and allow to marinate while the broiler heats up. Arrange them on a broiler pan, or wire rack set over a cookie sheet for best results. <br>step 4: Position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Broil for 5 minutes on each side, or until browned and crisp, watching closely so as not to burn them. Serve warm with the remaining barbeque sauce for dipping. <br>
