15-MINUTE TOFU AND VEGETABLE STIR-FRY



15-Minute Tofu and Vegetable Stir-Fry image

Tofu sometimes gets a reputation for being bland, but that's not the case in this quick stir-fry. We toss meaty baked tofu in a spicy Asian marinade with tons of bold flavor. Packaged stir-fry mix and pre-sliced shiitake mushrooms can easily be found in the produce section of most grocery stores, and make it possible for this healthy meal to come together in 15 minutes or less.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups frozen cooked brown rice
1-inch piece ginger
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons garlic chili sauce
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
12 ounces baked tofu
3 tablespoons canola oil
One 3.5-ounce package sliced shiitake mushrooms (about 2 cups)
One 1-pound package fresh stir-fry vegetable mix (not frozen)
Kosher salt
1/2 cup roasted and salted cashew halves and pieces

Steps:

  • Prepare the rice according to the package directions. Peel and finely grate the ginger and put it into a small baking dish or medium bowl along with the soy sauce, garlic chili sauce and sesame oil. Whisk to combine.
  • Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Cut the baked tofu into 1-inch-by-1/2-inch pieces and add to the marinade. Stir to combine and reserve. Fill a small measuring cup or bowl with cold water and keep by the stovetop.
  • Add the canola oil to the hot pan and swirl to coat. Add the shiitake mushrooms and cook until tender and browned in spots, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Add the stir-fry vegetable mix and a large pinch of salt. Cook until crisp tender, 3 to 5 minutes (the cooking time will depend on the size of the vegetables in the mix). If at any time the pan seems too hot, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Add the marinated tofu to the vegetables along with 2 tablespoons water. Cook until the tofu is warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the stir-fry to a large platter. Scatter the cashews on top and serve alongside the rice.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound firm tofu, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 teaspoons coriander seeds, lightly crushed
1 pound ground pork
Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup snow peas
2 red bell peppers, seeded and cut into 1-inch strips
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, plus more as needed
1 scant tablespoon honey
1 small knob fresh ginger, grated
Zest and juice of 1 large lemon
1 tablespoon rice vinegar or red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Cook the tofu: Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet or wok over high heat. Add 3 tablespoons oil. When the oil begins to smoke, remove the skillet from the heat and quickly (and carefully!) add the tofu in a single layer. Return the skillet to high heat and cook, stirring from time to time, until the tofu is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully remove the tofu to a plate. Add the coriander seeds and toast for 15 seconds. Add the ground pork in a single layer, then sprinkle with salt and the red pepper flakes and brown over medium-high heat until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the pork to the tofu.
  • Cook the vegetables: Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining tablespoon oil. Stir in the garlic and scallions and cook over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add the snow peas and peppers and cook until they become tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce, honey, ginger and lemon zest and juice. Simmer for an additional minute. Taste for seasoning.
  • Finish: Add the pork and tofu back to the skillet and gently stir to reheat and combine, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and add the vinegar and additional soy sauce to taste.
