Soak 8 wooden skewers in water. Zest and juice the orange. Chop the cilantro. In a shallow baking dish, make a marinade from soy sauce, rice wine, orange zest and juice, Asian 5-spice blend, and 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro. Cut the tofu into 16 pieces, the zucchini into 8 pieces, the bell peppers into 12 pieces each, and halve the mushrooms. Thread the tofu cubes, zucchini, bell peppers, and mushrooms onto the wooden skewers, alternating them with the zucchini. Place the skewers in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour, turning after 30 minutes. Grill the skewers on a preheated grill for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with the marinade.
