Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 14 oz pressed and cubed firm tofu in a single layer and cook for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally until all sides are golden brown and crispy. Remove tofu and set aside.
- Step 2: In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp vegetable oil. Stir-fry 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Step 3: Add 2 cups trimmed snow peas and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
- Step 4: Return the tofu to the skillet and pour in 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tsp sesame oil. Toss everything to coat and cook for another 1-2 minutes until sauce thickens slightly and glazes the tofu and snow peas.
- Step 5: Remove from heat and garnish with 2 sliced green onions and 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds before serving.
