Another grilling day


The beautiful weather continues and so is our grilling menu. Tonight was skewers of orange-ginger tofu and cumin shrimp with asparagus. The orange-soy marinade was tasty and probably would've gone well with the shrimp too. 

Orange-ginger-soy marinade
1/4 c freshly squeezed orange juice
1/4 c soy sauce
1 tbsp minced ginger
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
zest of 1 orange
2 tbsp vegetable oil
pinch of chili flakes

Whisk together the ingredients. Pour over cubed tofu (~1 lb), marinate for a few hours in the fridge. Skewer tofu. Grill.

There's not much of a recipe for the shrimp. I just salt and pepper the shrimp and add a pinch (or 2) of ground cumin. Then stir in some oil. You can add some minced jalapeño for some heat.
Mmmm.
