INGREDIENTS
400g Extra Firm Tofu
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for tofu)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for dressing)
1 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut it into roughly 1/2-inch thick slices or cubes.
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss asparagus with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a light drizzle of olive oil, then spread evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast asparagus in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tofu pieces and sear on each side until golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of one lemon, 1 teaspoon olive oil, minced garlic from 2 cloves, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
Drizzle the lemon-garlic dressing over the crispy tofu and roasted asparagus. Serve warm, and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
