- Preheat a grill pan to high heat, and season with a bit of oil. Add tofu, and grill on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes, until clear grill marks appear. Turn over and repeat on other side.
- Immediately serve tofu drizzled generously with marinade and topped with salsa.
- Decorate with additional chopped basil.
