Pan-Seared Tofu with Peanut Sauce
Crispy pan-seared tofu cubes tossed in a creamy, velvety peanut sauce and served with vibrant steamed broccoli and protein-packed edamame.
INGREDIENTS
12 oz Extra-firm tofu
1 tsp Sesame oil
1 cup Broccoli florets
0.5 cup Shelled edamame
1 tbsp Creamy peanut butter
1 tbsp Tamari
1 tbsp Lime juice
1 tsp Fresh ginger
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
1 tbsp Water
PREPARATION
Remove the tofu from its packaging and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel or paper towels; place a heavy object on top and press for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture.
While the tofu is pressing, prepare the peanut sauce by whisking together the peanut butter, tamari, lime juice, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and water in a small bowl until smooth.
Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes.
Heat the sesame oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes in a single layer and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy on all edges.
While the tofu sears, steam the broccoli florets and shelled edamame in a steamer basket over boiling water for 5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
Once the tofu is crispy, reduce the heat to low and pour the peanut sauce over the tofu, tossing gently to coat every piece until the sauce thickens slightly.
Transfer the glazed tofu to a plate and serve alongside the steamed broccoli and edamame.
