Seared Tofu Steaks with Garlic Green Beans and Brown Rice
Enjoy a heartwarming, plant-powered dinner featuring crispy seared tofu steaks paired with vibrant garlic green beans and a serving of nutty brown rice. This dish combines satisfying textures with a burst of savory garlic, offering a comforting yet light meal experience.
INGREDIENTS
400g Extra Firm Tofu
100g Cooked Brown Rice
125g Green Beans
9g Nutritional Yeast
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess water, then slice it into approximately 1/2-inch thick steaks.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the tofu steaks in the skillet and sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper during cooking.
While the tofu is searing, steam or blanch the green beans until they are crisp-tender, about 4-5 minutes.
In a separate small pan, lightly sauté minced garlic (from the 2 cloves) in a tiny splash of water or a drizzle of olive oil until fragrant, then toss the cooked green beans in the garlic mixture. Adjust salt and pepper as needed.
Reheat or warm the pre-cooked brown rice if necessary.
To assemble, plate the tofu steaks alongside a serving of brown rice and garlic green beans. Sprinkle nutritional yeast over the tofu for an added boost of flavor and a subtle cheesy note.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious and balanced dinner.
