Instructions

  1. Step 1: Cube 14 oz firm tofu into 1/2-inch pieces. In a bowl, mix 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp mirin, 1 tsp grated ginger, and 1 tbsp sesame oil. Marinate tofu for 15 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp sesame oil and cook tofu for 5-6 minutes until golden and crispy, then set aside.
  3. Step 3: In the same skillet, add 1 cup broccoli florets, 1 medium bell pepper, and 1/2 cup snow peas. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  4. Step 4: Return tofu to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Serve immediately, garnished with 1 tbsp sesame seeds.
