3. Now, in a large mixing bowl, combine the garlic, jalapeno, onion, broth, vinegar, lime juice, chipotle sauce, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Whisk to combine.
4. Add the chunks of tofu to the bowl and toss to combine. Let the tofu sit in the marinade for about 15 minutes.
5. Pour the tofu, marinade and all on to a large sheet pan lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Spread out evenly.
