Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 14 ounce extra firm tofu drained
  • 1.67 tablespoon gluten-free Tamari (or soy sauce), divided
  • 4 teaspoons sriracha divided
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil divided
  • 1 medium scallion chopped, white and green parts separated

  • 1 cup cooked brown rice
  • 0.5 cup shelled edamame warmed
  • 0.5 teaspoon multi color sesame seeds

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Place tofu block between some paper towels and press to absorb extra water. Repeat until tofu feels dry and no more water comes out.
  • Slice tofu across in half lengthwise and then into cubes.
  • In a large bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon of the Tamari, 2 teaspoons of the sriracha, 2 teaspoons of the sesame oil, and the scallion whites. Add the tofu and let it sit for 10 minutes to marinate.
  • Air Fryer directions: Spray the air fryer basket with oil. Transfer the marinated tofu to the air fryer in a single layer and air fry at 370°F (188°C) for about 10 to 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway, until the tofu is slightly golden and crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Oven directions: Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 25 minutes, turning halfway, until the tofu is golden and crisp.
  • To Finish: While the tofu cooks, add the remaining 2 teaspoons sriracha, 2 teaspoons Tamari, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and Thai sweet chili sauce to the bowl.
  • When the tofu is ready, toss it with the prepared sauce to coat until evenly covered. Serve immediately over cooked brown rice with warmed shelled edamame, multi-color sesame seeds, and scallion greens.
