Ingredients

  • 1 1 ounce packet ranch seasoning mix
  • ½ cup pepperoncini brine
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 14 ounce packages extra-firm tofu, pressed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 15 pepperoncini peppers
  • 1 large red onion cut into 1-inch pieces

Instructions

  • Whisk together the ranch seasoning, pepperoncini brine, olive oil, and soy sauce in a shallow dish or zip-top bag.
  • Add the tofu and turn to coat. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight, turning occasionally. Reserve the marinade after removing the tofu.
  • Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (375 to 450°F). Oil the grates generously.
  • Thread the tofu onto skewers along with the pepperoncini peppers and red onion, alternating pieces.
  • Place the skewers on the grill and leave undisturbed until they release easily, about 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the tofu is golden and the onion is lightly charred.
  • Drizzle the reserved marinade over the finished skewers and serve immediately.
