Once you've removed the water, cut the block of tofu horizontally into thirds. Then cut each third lengthwise into four or five strips. Finally, cut each of these into 6 to 8 cubes depending on the desired size.
Place the tofu into a medium-sized container and pour the marinade over the tofu. Gently toss to coat the tofu with the marinade. Allow the tofu to marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to several hours.
Place the tofu in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes, turning halfway through.
Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh parsley if desired, and serve next to a bed of rice and stir-fried veggies.
