Pan-Seared Tofu with Roasted Vegetables
Crispy pan-seared tofu and earthy lentils tossed with vibrant roasted broccoli and peppers, finished with a savory nutritional yeast coating for a nutty, golden finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Extra firm tofu
0.5 cup Cooked green lentils
1 tbsp Nutritional yeast
1 cup Broccoli florets
1 cup Red bell pepper
1 tsp Avocado oil
1 tbsp Tamari
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Lemon juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the broccoli florets and sliced red bell pepper on a parchment-lined baking sheet, season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the vegetables roast, press the extra firm tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Heat the avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the tofu cubes to the skillet and sear for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and crispy.
Lower the heat to medium and stir in the cooked green lentils, tamari, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast.
Toss the tofu and lentils constantly for 2 minutes to ensure the nutritional yeast forms a savory crust.
Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and fold them into the skillet with the tofu mixture.
Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and serve immediately.
