Remove the tofu from its packaging and pat dry with paper towels
Weigh the tofu down with the bottom part of a clean frying pan (use paper towel in-between if needed)
Leave the pan weighing down on tofu for at least 15 minutes, until almost all the liquid is drained from the tofu
Cut the tofu into pieces (I made small cubes this time)
Sprinkle tofu with salt, garlic powder and black pepper. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes
Preheat the oven to 400F
Arrange the tofu on the baking sheet, lightly spray tofu on all sides with cooking spray. Be sure to leave enough space between tofu cubes and bake for about 7-10 minutes. Flip the tofu and keeping baking until the outside is golden and looks crispy, for about 7-10 more minutes
Check on the tofu and do not over bake as it will then be chewier and harder.
