Chinese Tofu Stir-Fry (Vegetarian, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)

A quick and easy stir-fry with tofu and mixed vegetables in a savory sauce.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Extra-Firm Tofu, pressed and cubed
• 1/2 cup Broccoli Florets
• 1/4 cup Bell Pepper, sliced
• 1/4 cup Snap Peas
• 2 tbsp Gluten-Free Tamari
• 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
• 1 tsp Sesame Oil
• 1 tsp Ginger, minced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tsp Cornstarch
• 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
• 1 cup Cooked Brown Rice

Instructions

1. Press extra-firm tofu to remove excess water, then cube.
2. Heat sesame oil in a wok or large pan over high heat. Add minced ginger and garlic, and sauté until fragrant.
3. Add tofu and stir-fry until golden brown and slightly crispy for improved texture.
4. Add broccoli, bell pepper, and snap peas. Stir-fry until vegetables are tender-crisp.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together tamari, maple syrup, and cornstarch until smooth. The cornstarch helps to thicken the sauce.
6. Pour sauce over stir-fry and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens and coats the vegetables and tofu.
7. Stir in red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
8. Serve hot over cooked brown rice.
