Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (14 ounce) can light coconut milk
¼ cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon sriracha sauce
½ teaspoon ground chile pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 carrots, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 (14 ounce) package firm tofu, drained and cut into 1-inch cubes
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
4 cups baby spinach
1 ½ cups cooked brown rice

Steps:

  • Whisk coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, sriracha sauce, and ground chile powder in a bowl until a smooth sauce forms.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add carrots and red bell pepper; saute until just tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Add tofu; saute until lightly browned, about 4 minutes per side. Add garlic and ginger; cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I often add whatever vegetables I have on hand, and it always turns out great. The peanut sauce is also very versatile. You can add different spices or herbs to taste.
