For the BEST tofu gyro meat, freeze your tofu after draining and pressing it for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
Thaw out your tofu by placing it in warm water. Squeeze out excess water after it's defrosted.
Slice your tofu into very thin strips.
In a medium shallow bowl, whisk together your gyro marinade ingredients.
Dip each tofu strip into the marinade, coating each side, then place on a large plate. Cover and let marinate for 1 hour in the fridge.
Heat a large NON-STICK pan over MEDIUM/HIGH heat. Add olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
Cook tofu strips for ~3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy, then flip and cook the other side for another few minutes.
At the end of cooking, add in 1 tbsp of water and cover the pan for 30 seconds.
Repeat for all tofu strips, adding more oil as needed.
