Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 14 oz pressed and cubed firm tofu and cook for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally until all sides are golden brown and slightly crisp.
Step 2: Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp fresh minced ginger to the pan, stirring constantly for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 3: Toss in 3 cups broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender.
Step 4: Mix 3 tbsp hoisin sauce, 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, and 1/4 cup water in a small bowl, then pour over the tofu and broccoli. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats everything evenly.
Step 5: Drizzle 1 tsp sesame oil over the stir-fry, toss briefly, then remove from heat. Garnish with 2 sliced green onions and 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds before serving over steamed rice or noodles.
