Sesame Tofu with Broccoli and Scallions
Sesame Tofu with Broccoli and Scallions is a delicious and nutritious dish typically made by stir-frying tofu with sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. The tofu is usually coated in a flavorful sesame sauce and served with sautéed broccoli and scallions. It's a vegetarian dish that is both tasty and satisfying!
Ingredients
- 16 oz. firm tofu well-drained
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 lime juiced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 4 cups broccoli florets steamed tender crisp
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 3 scallions thinly sliced
- Sea salt and black pepper to taste
- Cooked rice for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper for easy clean up.
- Add the tofu to the prepared baking sheet and toss with oil and cornstarch. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer into the oven and bake until golden and crisp around the edges, approximately 18-20 minutes.
- In the meantime, in a medium bowl whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, and garlic. Taste and adjust with more lime juice for freshness, more honey for sweetness, or more soy sauce for saltiness. If needed, add a tablespoon of water to thin it out.
- Remove the tofu from the oven and toss with the sauce.
- Serve the tofu and steamed broccoli over cooked rice and top with sesame seeds and scallions.
- Enjoy!
