Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by pressing the tofu to remove excess moisture. Place the tofu block on a plate lined with paper towels. Cover the tofu with more paper towels and place a heavy object on top, such as a cast-iron skillet. Let it sit for about 20-30 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by mixing together soy sauce, rice vinegar, and honey in a small bowl. Set it aside for later.
-
Once the tofu is ready, cut it into bite-sized cubes. In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until they are golden brown on all sides. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set it aside.
-
In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if needed. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until fragrant.
-
Add the sliced bell peppers and broccoli florets to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
-
Return the tofu to the skillet and pour the sauce over the tofu and vegetables. Gently toss everything together to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat everything through.
-
Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
-
Serve the Ginger Garlic Tofu Stir Fry over cooked white rice and garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh burst of flavor and color.
