Ingredients

  • 1 14 oz block extra firm tofu ((*pressed if needed))
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce ((I like chili garlic sauce or sriracha))
  • 1 clove of garlic (, grated)
  • 1 teaspoon arrowroot powder/corn starch
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa or rice

Directions

  1. 1

    * if your tofu is still pretty soft/watery, you'll want to press it. To press it, simply place it on a paper towel-lined plate, top with another paper towel, and place something heavy (like a few cookbooks or a tea kettle/cast iron pan) on top of it. Allow the tofu to sit for at least 30 minutes. Once pressed, drain the water and cut the tofu into cubes.

  2. 2

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon of oil, along with the broccoli and tofu. Add a splash of water + 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Cover and let cook until hot, about 5 minutes. Stir again to combine.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Whisk everything together until smooth. Pour the sauce on the tofu and broccoli and cook another 1 - 2 minutes until everything is coated and then serve immediately over quinoa or rice!
