INGREDIENTS
150g Extra Firm Tofu
100g Chickpeas, drained
75g Shelled Edamame
1 medium Zucchini (~200g)
1 small Red Bell Pepper (~100g)
5 Cherry Tomatoes
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture and cut it into bite-sized cubes.
Rinse and drain the chickpeas and edamame if needed. Set aside.
Slice the zucchini and red bell pepper into rounds or strips. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
Finely mince the garlic and roughly chop the fresh basil and parsley.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the tofu cubes and lightly brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the zucchini, red bell pepper, and chickpeas to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until vegetables start to soften.
Stir in the edamame and cherry tomatoes, and add the fresh basil and parsley.
Lower the heat and cover the skillet, allowing the vegetables to braise in their own juices for about 5 minutes, until tender and silky.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then gently toss to combine all the flavors. Serve warm.
