Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons vegetarian teriyaki sauce
2 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon sherry
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
½ teaspoon ginger paste
5 tablespoons cornstarch
1 (14 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, pressed and cut into slices
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Whisk teriyaki sauce, green onions, sherry, garlic, Sriracha sauce, and ginger paste together until smooth. Set aside.
  • Place cornstarch in a gallon-sized plastic zip-top bag. Drop tofu slices into the bag, seal, and gently shake until all the tofu is coated.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook tofu for 5 minutes. Flip with tongs and cook until browned on the second side, about 5 minutes more. Transfer the tofu to a plate and wipe the skillet clean.
  • Pour reserved sauce into the skillet and cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Return the tofu to the skillet and toss to combine. Transfer the tofu to serving plates and spoon sauce on top just before serving.
