Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (14 ounce) package water-packed extra firm tofu, rinsed, patted dry and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 medium red onion, sliced
2 teaspoons canola oil
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon tahini
1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
3 cups sugar snap peas, trimmed or 3 cups broccoli
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Toss tofu, onion, canola oil, sesame oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Spread on a large baking sheet and roast until the tofu is lightly golden on top and the onions are browning in spots, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Whisk tahini, soy sauce, maple syrup and vinegar in a small dish until combined. Remove the tofu from the oven, add snap peas and drizzle with the maple sauce; stir to combine. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Return to the oven and continue roasting until the peas are crisp-tender, 8 to 12 minutes more.

I'm allergic to sesame seeds. Is there a way to make this dish without them?

I'm a big fan of tofu, but I'm not sure about roasting it. I usually prefer it pan-fried or grilled.

I'm not usually a big fan of tofu, but this dish changed my mind. The marinade really infused the tofu with flavor, and the roasted sesame seeds added a nice crunch.

This roasted tofu with sesame-maple sauce was a hit! The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and nutty.
