Cooking Steps
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- While the pan heats, 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.) Season with salt, pepper and half the Zesty Garlic Blend.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Cook until golden, 2-3 min per side.
- Meanwhile, add 2/3 cup (11/3 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt and remaining Zesty Garlic Blend to a medium pot.
- Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, remove from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine.
- Cover and let stand, 5 min.
- Meanwhile, cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Thinly slice chives.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Add mayo, half the tahini sauce (use all for 4 ppl), half the chives, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and garlic to a small bowl. (NOTE: Reference garlic guide.) Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then stir to combine. (NOTE: This is your tahini-ranch sauce.)
- Add 2 tsp (4 tsp) lemon juice, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. (NOTE: This is your lemon dressing.)
- Add lemon zest and remaining chives to the pot with couscous.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, then fluff with a fork to combine.
- Add spinach and tomatoes to the large bowl with lemon dressing, then toss to coat.
- Thinly slice tofu.
- Add couscous to the bowl with salad, then toss to combine.
- Divide couscous salad between bowls. Top with tofu.
- Drizzle with tahini-ranch sauce.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if desired.
If you've opted to get tofu, pat dry with paper towels. Cut in half, parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have 2 square tofu "steaks" per block.) Season, cook and plate in the same way the recipe instructs you to season, cook and plate the chicken. Reduce pan-frying time to 2-3 min per side.
