It's easy to make Grilled Tofu Shawarma with this simple shawarma marinade. It makes amazing grilled chicken shawarma as well!
Remove Tofu blocks from their container, slice horizontally (two large rectangles) and carefully press to drain. Slice each in half, then in half again. You should have 16 total large pieces.
The flavors will be the most intense if you start with whole cumin seed, whole corianders seed and whole allspice, then toast in a dry skillet and grind them all together.
Combine the cumin, coriander, allspice, za'atar, turmeric, salt and pepper in a small container and shake well to mix
In a mixing bowl, combine spices with the ginger, garlic, liquid smoke, lemon juice and olive oil. Mix really well and use this as the marinade for either tofu or chicken
Clean your grill grates extremely well as your grill is heating up and then rub them liberally with vegetable oil.
Grill the tofu for 20 minutes at 450 degrees, turning one quarter of the way every 5 minutes
