Peanut-Ginger Tofu Scramble
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons water
- 3 tablespoons smooth natural peanut butter
- 1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 3 medium cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (14-ounce) package firm tofu
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced on an angle
- 1 medium avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
- Whisk water, peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, honey and garlic together in a small bowl until smooth.
- Drain tofu; pat dry with paper towels. Slice the tofu crosswise into 8 (1/2-inch-thick) slabs. Coarsely crumble each slab into uneven pieces.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu in a single layer and sprinkle with salt; cook, undisturbed, until the pieces begin to turn golden brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip the pieces gently; cook, stirring occasionally, until all sides are golden brown, about 7 minutes. Add scallions; cook, stirring constantly, until the scallions are bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; pour the peanut-ginger sauce over the top and gently stir to coat the tofu. Transfer to a platter. Top with sliced avocado and cilantro leaves.
