Ingredients

  • 14 oz extra-firm tofu, pressed, cubed
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar snap peas, trimmed
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 2 tbsp agave nectar or maple syrup
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil or neutral oil
  • 2 tsp sesame seeds
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice (for serving)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Pat 14 oz pressed, cubed extra-firm tofu dry with paper towels, then toss with 2 tbsp cornstarch until evenly coated. Spread in a single layer on one side of the prepared pan. Drizzle with half the 2 tbsp avocado oil or neutral oil.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), 2 tbsp agave nectar or maple syrup, 2 tsp toasted sesame oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger to make the glaze.

  4. 4

    Toss 3 cups broccoli florets, 1 large sliced red bell pepper, and 1 1/2 cups trimmed sugar snap peas with the remaining avocado oil or neutral oil on the other side of the pan.

  5. 5

    Spoon half the glaze over the extra-firm tofu and toss the remaining glaze with the vegetables.

  6. 6

    Roast for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, flip the tofu cubes, and stir the vegetables. Return to oven for 8 to 10 more minutes until tofu is golden and crispy and vegetables are tender-caramelized.

  7. 7

    Serve over 2 cups cooked white or brown rice (for serving) and garnish with 2 tsp sesame seeds and 2 sliced green onions.
