Instructions

Step 1: Press and drain 14 oz firm tofu, then cut into 1-inch cubes. Heat 3 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu cubes and stir-fry for 6-8 minutes until golden brown on all sides, turning occasionally.
Step 2: Add 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves to the pan. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 3: Toss in 4 cups chopped broccoli rabe or kale and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the greens are bright and tender-crisp.
Step 4: Stir together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 2 tsp sesame oil, and 1/4 tsp red chili flakes (if using). Pour sauce over the tofu and greens, tossing to coat evenly. Cook for another 2 minutes until heated through.
Step 5: Remove from heat and garnish with 2 sliced green onions and 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately as a nutrient-rich plant-based meal.
