INGREDIENTS
300g Extra-Firm Tofu
0.5 cup Chickpeas (roasted)
2 cups Mixed Greens
2 tbsp Hemp Seeds
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tbsp Cornstarch
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press and drain the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes. Toss the cubes in a small bowl with cornstarch, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the tofu cubes until they are golden and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If using canned chickpeas, rinse and pat dry. Toss the chickpeas lightly with salt, pepper, and a tiny drizzle of olive oil. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes or until crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper to create the vinaigrette.
Assemble the dish by layering mixed greens on a plate, then top with the crispy tofu and roasted chickpeas. Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over the top.
Sprinkle hemp seeds over the dish for added crunch and protein. Serve immediately and enjoy!
