Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon soy sauce, mustard, sesame oil, vinegar, and chives. Bring a large stockpot of water to boil. Blanch asparagus just until tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a colander, and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
- Pour sesame seeds onto a small plate. Place remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce and tofu in a medium bowl. Turn tofu in soy sauce to coat; let sit 30 seconds. Remove a baton; dip one side in sesame seeds. Transfer to a clean plate. Repeat with remaining batons.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Coat with cooking spray. Arrange tofu, with sesame seeds down, in pan. Cook until golden brown on the bottoms, about 5 minutes. Brown remaining sides, about 2 minutes per side; remove from skillet.
- In a large bowl, toss the asparagus in vinaigrette. Divide the asparagus and tofu among four plates, and drizzle with any remaining vinaigrette. Serve.

[email protected]This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning or a different sauce. The tofu was also a bit dry.

[email protected]This dish was easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more garlic to the sauce. Other than that, it was perfect.

[email protected]I made this dish last night and it was delicious! I used low-sodium soy sauce and added a bit of sriracha for a little spice. I also served it with jasmine rice instead of brown rice. It was a quick and easy meal that my whole family enjoyed.
