Cooking Steps

Roast sweet potatoes
1
  • Peel, then cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Add sweet potatoes and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt, pepper and half the Jerk Spice Blend, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven, tossing halfway through, until golden-brown, 25-28 min.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, husk corn.
  • Halve cucumber lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Thinly slice green onion.
  • 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, half the sriracha, half the mayo and remaining Jerk Spice Blend to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
Grill tofu and corn
3
  • Add tofu to one side of the grill. Grill tofu, flipping once, until grill marked, 4-5 min per side. 
  • While tofu cooks, add corn to the other side of the grill. Close lid and grill, turning occasionally, until tender and grill marks form, 8-10 min.
  • Transfer corn and tofu to a large plate.
Make salad dressing
4
  • Add vinegar, remaining sriracha, remaining mayo and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.

  • When corn is cool enough to handle, with corn on its side, cut kernels from cob, turning cob as you go.
  • Add corn, cucumbers and spring mix to the bowl with salad dressing, then toss to coat.
Finish and serve
6
  • Thinly slice tofu. 
  • Divide salad and tofu between plates.
