CRISPY TERIYAKI TOFU

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.

EASY SESAME TOFU WITH TERIYAKI VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Spray a skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add bell peppers and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are slightly tender, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, slice tofu widthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Spray a second skillet with a little cooking spray to ensure all surfaces are coated. Lay tofu slices side by side in a flat layer in the skillet; you will have to work in batches. Sprinkle exposed side of each tofu piece with sesame seeds.
• Cook over medium heat until tofu is firm, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip each piece of tofu over with a fork. Sprinkle the cooked side of the tofu with sesame seeds and cook until firm and browned, 3 to 5 minutes longer. Remove tofu from the skillet and set aside. Repeat to cook remaining tofu.
• Stir teriyaki sauce and honey together in a bowl. Add remaining sesame seeds (there should be at least 1/2 cup left) to the sauce. Pour sauce over the vegetables in the pan and heat on low heat until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Serve vegetables with sauce over brown rice and top with sesame tofu.
