Ingredients:
- 1 block extra firm tofu, pressed and cubed

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon agave syrup or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions:
To make the marinade, mix the garlic, agave syrup, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl with a whisk
Add the lime juice soon after
Put the tofu cubes on skewers and set them in a shallow dish
Make sure the tofu skewers are well covered with marinade by pouring it over them
Put it in the fridge with the lid on for at least 30 minutes to marinate
