Drain and press the extra firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Once pressed, cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander, black pepper, and salt to make the marinade.
Add the tofu cubes to the marinade and toss well to coat evenly. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to a few hours for more intense flavor.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tofu cubes and cook until they are golden brown and slightly crispy on all sides, about 10-12 minutes.
While the tofu is cooking, prepare the vegetables by washing and slicing the tomatoes and cucumber, and washing the lettuce leaves.
Warm the tortilla wraps in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, lay a lettuce leaf on each tortilla, followed by a few slices of tomato and cucumber.
Top with the cooked tofu kebab pieces, then drizzle with vegan yogurt or tahini sauce.
Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top for added flavor and freshness.
Roll up the tortilla into a wrap and secure it with a toothpick if needed. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious vegan chicken kebab wraps!
