Pan-Seared Tofu with Garlic-Ginger Sauce
Crispy pan-seared tofu cubes tossed in a fragrant garlic-ginger glaze, served with vibrant steamed broccoli and bell peppers for a satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
16 oz firm tofu
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
2 tbsp tamari
1 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic
1 cup broccoli florets
0.5 cup red bell pepper
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp sesame seeds
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for 20 minutes between paper towels and a heavy plate to remove excess moisture for a crispier texture.
Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, maple syrup, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the glaze.
Heat the toasted sesame oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the tofu cubes to the skillet in a single layer, searing for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
Add the broccoli florets and sliced red bell pepper to the pan, sautéing for 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Pour the garlic-ginger sauce over the tofu and vegetables, tossing constantly for 1-2 minutes until the glaze thickens and coats everything.
Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
