and ginger in a bowl. Whisk until sauce is smooth. Set aside.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
Remove the tofu pieces and tap to remove any excess marinade. Skewer an equal number of tofu pieces onto each skewer.
Grill the skewers on each side until browned

10 to 15 minutes total.
Drizzle the peanut sauce over the skewers and serve with extra sauce and lime wedges on the side.
Cook's Note:
If you like
cook the cubes before skewering
so they cook on each side to increase the crunchy texture. You can also use a griddle instead of a grill.
