Cooking Steps

Make rice
1
  • Before starting, add 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high.  
  • Lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium-high (approx. 500°F ). Wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.  
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice and Cumin-Turmeric Spice Blend, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, quarter zucchini lengthwise.
  • Core, then quarter pepper. 
  • Roughly chop parsley. 
  • Drain, then roughly chop olives.
  • To a medium bowl, add zucchini, peppers and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) garlic salt and pepper. Set aside. 
  • 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. To a large bowl, add tofu, Shawarma Spice Blend and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
Grill veggies and tofu
3
  • Add veggies to one side of the grill. Close lid and grill for 9-12 min, flipping once, until tender-crisp.
  • Meanwhile, add tofu to the other side of the grill. Grill tofu 4-5 min per side, flipping once, until grill-marked. 
  • Transfer tofu to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
  • Transfer veggies back to the medium bowl.
Finish rice and veggies
4
  • Roughly chop grilled zucchini and peppers into 1-inch pieces. Return to the bowl, stir in olives and half the parsley. 
  • Once rice is tender, stir in 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and remaining parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
Finish and serve
5
  • Slice tofu, if desired.
  • Divide rice between plates. 
  • Top with tofu and veggies. 
  • Drizzle yogurt sauce over top.
