Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

Tofu

  • 1 block High Protein Tofu Firm tofu also works well
  • 1 tbsp Avocado Oil
  • 2 tbsp Tamari
  • 2 tbsp Corn Starch

Sauce

  • 1/2 inch Ginger Root, peeled and minced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable Broth
  • 1/4 cup Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice Juice from about 2 large oranges
  • 1 tsp Orange Zest From about 1 large orange
  • 2 tbsp Rice Vinegar
  • 1 tsp Sherry Vinegar
  • 4 tbsp Coconut Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Corn Starch
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt

For Serving

  • 2 cups Cooked Jasmine Rice 1/2 cup per serving
  • 2 cups Steamed Broccoli 1/2 cup per serving
  • 2 tbsp Sesame Seeds 1/2 tbsp per portion
  • 2 stalks Green Onion, chopped Divided between 4 portions

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Break apart tofu into bite sized pieces and toss in a bowl with the avocado oil, tamari, and corn starch. Arrange on the baking tray and bake for 30 minutes stirring once halfway through. Alternatively, you may bake in an air fryer, though keep an eye on it as the air fryer cooks faster.
  • Meanwhile, combine the sauce ingredients in a bowl and stir together. When the tofu is done, remove from oven and let cool.
  • Heat a pan on medium heat and once hot (about a minute or 2) pour in the sauce. Whisk often until thickened. Add in the baked tofu and stir so all the pieces are evenly coated.
  • Remove from heat and enjoy with rice, broccoli, green onion, and sesame seeds.
  • Store any leftovers in a meal prep container and enjoy within 3-4 days.
