¼ cup(s)

Instructions
1
Line broiler pan with foil and spray broiler rack with cooking spray.
2
Gently press tofu between several layers of paper towels or kitchen towels to remove excess water. Cut into 24 (1-inch) cubes.
3
Thread tofu alternately with zucchini, red pepper, and onion onto 8 (10- to 12-inch) metal skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water at least 20 minutes to prevent charring).
4
Place skewers on a plate. Brush on all sides with some of teriyaki sauce. Let stand about 30 minutes, turning and brushing with sauce once or twice more.
5
Meanwhile, preheat broiler to high.
6
Transfer kebabs to prepared broiler rack. Broil about 4 inches from heat, turning several times, until vegetables have started to soften and tofu is browned, about 12 minutes. Sprinkle with black pepper.
