Ingredients
Scale
1 block (14 oz) extra-firm tofu, pressed and cubed
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 inch ginger, grated
1/4 cup Sriracha
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Cooked rice, for serving
Sesame seeds, for garnish
Instructions
In a bowl, toss tofu with soy sauce and cornstarch until evenly coated.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook until golden brown on all sides. Remove tofu from skillet and set aside.
Add bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir fry for 3-5 minutes until slightly tender.
Add garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
In a small bowl, whisk together Sriracha, rice vinegar, honey, and sesame oil.
Return tofu to the skillet. Pour the Sriracha sauce over the tofu and vegetables. Toss to coat.
Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
Serve immediately over cooked rice, garnished with sesame seeds.
Notes
For extra crispy tofu, bake the coated tofu at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes before adding it to the stir fry.
Adjust Sriracha quantity to your spice preference.
Add other vegetables like broccoli, snap peas, or carrots for more variety.
