Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 small onion, one half cut into thick wedges through the stem and the other half finely diced
1 medium poblano chile
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 chipotle pepper and 2 tablespoons adobo sauce (from one 7-ounce can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce)
2 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 14-ounce package extra-firm tofu, drained well
Brown rice, for serving
Black beans, for serving
Shredded romaine lettuce, for serving
Prepared pico de gallo, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to broil.
  • Place the onion wedges and poblano on a rimmed baking sheet and rub with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Broil, turning several times with tongs, until the poblano has collapsed in on itself and the vegetables are charred, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven. When the poblano is cool enough to handle, remove and discard the skin, stem and seeds.
  • Transfer the poblano to a blender. Add the charred onion wedges, chipotle pepper and adobo sauce, garlic, soy sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, vinegar, cumin, 1/2 cup water, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Blend until smooth, then set the poblano mixture aside.
  • Cut the tofu crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick planks, then press the pieces between a couple paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu and cook until well browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate to cool.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet, then add the diced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 6 minutes. Using your hands, tear and crumble the tofu into very small pieces and add to the skillet. Cook, stirring to combine, until warmed through, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the poblano mixture and 1/2 cup water to the skillet and cook until it's bubbling all over and the tofu has absorbed some of the sauce, about 5 minutes. Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons water if the mixture gets too dry (it should be saucy). Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Serve over rice and beans and top with lettuce and pico de gallo.

Tips

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your pico de gallo will be.
  • Choose the right onions: White or yellow onions are the most common type of onion used in pico de gallo, but you can also use red onions for a more pungent flavor.
  • Chop the ingredients finely: The finer you chop the ingredients, the better they will blend together and the more flavorful your pico de gallo will be.
  • Use fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro is essential for giving pico de gallo its characteristic flavor. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute dried cilantro, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Add a squeeze of lime juice: Lime juice adds a bright, acidic flavor to pico de gallo that helps to balance out the sweetness of the tomatoes and onions.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste your pico de gallo before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lime juice to suit your taste.

Conclusion

Pico de gallo is a delicious and versatile salsa that can be used as a topping for tacos, burritos, nachos, and other Mexican dishes. It can also be served as a side dish or as a dip for chips. No matter how you choose to enjoy it, pico de gallo is sure to be a hit.
