Instructions

  1. Step 1: Pat dry a 14 oz block of extra-firm tofu and cut into 1-inch cubes. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu cubes and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden and crispy.
  2. Step 2: Add 3 cups broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until bright green and just tender.
  3. Step 3: Stir in 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tsp sesame oil. Pour the sauce over the tofu and broccoli, stirring well to coat everything evenly.
  5. Step 5: Cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the tofu and vegetables.
  6. Step 6: Remove from heat and garnish with 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 sliced green onions before serving.
