Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz Extra-firm tofu
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 3 tbsp Coconut aminos (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 2 tbsp Sesame oil
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp Avocado oil
- 2 units Green onions, chopped
- 1 tsp Toasted sesame seeds
- 0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Wrap the tofu block in a clean towel, place it on a plate, and set a heavy object on top. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Slice the zucchini and red bell pepper into thin strips. Set aside the vegetables along with the broccoli florets.
In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, sesame oil, garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and slightly crispy. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of avocado oil to the skillet. Toss in the sliced zucchini, broccoli, and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for about 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked tofu to the skillet. Pour the sauce over the tofu and vegetables. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is evenly coated and heated through.
Taste and adjust seasoning if desired. Optionally, add red pepper flakes for a bit of spice.
Garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Tofu Stir Fry!
