Directions

Lay tofu slices in shallow baking dish.
Whisk together 2-3 tablespoons soy sauce, a generous pinch of chili and ¼ cup oil.
Spoon over tofu and add water so that all slices are submerged completely. Marinate for 10 minutes.
Lay tofu on grill, reserving marinade for brushing.
Cook until each side is browned, about 3 minutes. Brush as needed to keep the tofu moist and flavorful.
While the tofu grills, make the salad by combining arugula, cucumber, radishes, tomatoes and raspberries in a bowl.
Make the dressing by combining ¼ cup oil with orange juice, a generous pinch of salt and diced shallots.
Pour over salad and toss to coat.
Arrange salad on a platter and lay grilled tofu slices on top.
