• porções: 4 servings
• tempo ativo: 10 minutes
• tempo total: 30 minutes

Ingredientes

16 oz extra firm tofu (sliced into 1-inch cubes)

½ tsp black pepper

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp salt

¼ cup cornstarch

4 cloves garlic

⅓ cup soy sauce

¼ cup maple syrup (or honey if you eat it)

3 tbsp rice vinegar

2 tsp sriracha

½ tsp red pepper flakes

1½ tbsp cornstarch (mixed with 1½ tbsp water, to make a slurry)

4 servings jasmine rice

sesame seeds

1 brocoli

Instruções

Preheat the oven to 425F and line a baking sheet with parchment or a reusable silicone liner.

To a bowl, add the tofu, spices and cornstarch and toss.

Transfer to the baking sheet, liberally spray with oil, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until browned and crispy.

In the meantime, in a pan over medium heat, add the garlic, maple syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar and sriracha. Bring to a simmer.

While that simmers, in a small bowl, add the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the sauce and stir until it thickens, like honey or maple syrup consistency.

Once the tofu is cooked, pour it into the sauce and toss to coat. Serve over rice, and garnish with freshly chopped green onion and sesame seeds, as desired. Enjoy immediately or store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to four days.
