Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add cubed tofu and cook for 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides.
  2. Step 2: Push tofu to one side of the skillet, add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tsp grated ginger, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Add 2 cups trimmed snap peas and 1 sliced bell pepper, stir-frying for 3 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender with slight char.
  4. Step 4: Whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp sriracha in a small bowl. Pour over vegetables and tofu, stirring to coat evenly.
  5. Step 5: Stir in 1/2 cup water and bring to a simmer, then add 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water. Cook for 2 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  6. Step 6: Garnish with 2 sliced green onions and serve immediately over rice or noodles.
