Easy Soy-Glazed Tofu and Carrots image

This dish is similar to a stir-fry but it's cooked in the broiler, not on the stove. Be sure to use extra-firm tofu in this recipe, as it will hold up better than other types of tofu when broiled and tossed.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
Coarse salt
1 1/2 pounds carrots, (8 to 9 medium), cut into 2-inch lengths (thick pieces halved lengthwise)
2 packages (12 to 14 ounces each) extra-firm tofu, drained, each block cut into 16 equal pieces (32 total)
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 to 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 to 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

Steps:

  • Heat broiler. If using a broilerproof rimmed baking sheet, set rack 4 inches from heat; if using a broiler pan, set rack so that top of pan is 4 inches from heat. In a large bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add carrots; toss to coat.
  • With a slotted spoon, transfer carrots (reserving bowl with marinade) to sheet (or pan). Push carrots to one side.
  • Working with a few pieces at a time, add tofu to marinade in bowl; turn gently to coat, and transfer to sheet. Reserve bowl with marinade.
  • Broil until carrots are tender and tofu is browned, turning tofu halfway through cooking time and tossing carrots occasionally (more frequently toward end of cooking time), 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Transfer tofu and carrots to reserved bowl with marinade. Add scallions, vinegar, and sesame oil; toss gently to combine.
