Instructions

Step 1: Press 14 oz tofu to remove moisture, then cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Marinate in 1 tsp soy sauce and 1/2 tsp sriracha for 10 minutes.
Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 3: Add broccoli, bell pepper, and snow peas. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the edges are slightly charred.
Step 4: Add the marinated tofu and cook for 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy. Stir in 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sriracha, 1 tsp brown sugar, and 1/4 cup water. Cook for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
