INGREDIENTS
300g Extra Firm Tofu
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 tsp Olive Oil
0.25 tsp Salt
0.25 tsp Garlic Powder
0.25 tsp Smoked Paprika
0.125 tsp Black Pepper
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
100g Steamed Broccoli
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Press the extra firm tofu to remove excess water. Once pressed, cut it into bite-sized cubes.
In a large bowl, gently toss the tofu cubes with cornstarch, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the tofu cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching each other for optimal crisping.
Bake the tofu in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through to ensure even browning and crispiness.
While the tofu bakes, assemble your side dishes. If not pre-cooked, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions and steam the broccoli until tender yet crisp.
Once the tofu bites are golden and crispy, remove from the oven and serve immediately alongside the cooked quinoa and steamed broccoli.
