Ingredients
- 14 oz extra-firm tofu

- 1 cup, sliced carrots
- 1 cup, sliced snap peas
- 3 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions
- Step 1: Press 14 oz extra-firm tofu to remove excess water, then cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add tofu cubes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on all sides. Remove tofu and set aside.
- Step 2: In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp minced ginger and 2 minced garlic cloves. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add 1 cup broccoli florets, 1 cup sliced carrots, and 1 cup sliced snap peas. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are crisp-tender.
- Step 3: Return the tofu to the skillet. Add 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp sesame oil. Toss to coat and cook for 2 more minutes until heated through.
