Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons water
  • 4 tablespoons peanut butter (natural, smooth)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons low-sodium gluten-free soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons ginger (minced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups broccoli (blanched)
  • 4 scallions (thinly sliced)
  • 14 oz tofu (extra-firm)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the water, peanut butter, rice vinegar, gluten-free soy sauce, maple syrup, ginger, and garlic. Set aside.

  2. Drain and rinse the tofu, then pat dry and slice it in half horizontally.

  3. Cut the sliced tofu vertically into quarters, then crosswise. You should end up with tofu cubes roughly 1 inch by 1 inch.

  4. In a skillet, heat oil over high heat.

  5. Add tofu and cook in a single layer, without stirring, until the pieces begin to turn golden brown on the bottom (about 5 minutes).

  6. Gently turn the tofu and cook until both sides are golden brown (about 5-7 minutes).

  7. In a separate skillet, add the peanut sauce and blanched broccoli, and cook for 2 minutes.

  8. Add the tofu to that skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

  9. Remove the mixture from the heat, garnish with scallions and serve.

Bon appétit!
