Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 (8 ounce) package extra firm tofu, drained and pressed
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Cut tofu into bite sized pieces and saute in 2 tablespoons oil until browned.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, saute garlic and green onions in remaining 1 tablespoon oil until garlic is golden.
  • Add water, orange juice, lemon juice, vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, and pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium.
  • In a small cup or dish, mix together cornstarch and water until thoroughly blended. Pour cornstarch mixture into sauce, stirring constantly.

The orange sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I found that the tofu didn't get as crispy as I would have liked. I think I'll try frying it instead of baking it next time.

I'm allergic to gluten, so I used tamari instead of soy sauce and it turned out great.

This recipe was absolutely delicious! I've never had orange chicken tofu before, but I'm definitely a fan now. The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the orange sauce was perfectly tangy and sweet.
