List of Ingredients
Sauce
5 tablespoons water
4 tablespoons smooth natural peanut butter
1 tablespoon rice vinegar or white vinegar
2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons minced ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
Tofu & Vegetables
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
14 ounces extra-firm tofu, preferably water-packed
4 cups baby spinach (6 ounces)
1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms (4 ounces)
4 scallions, sliced (1 cup)Recipe
1. Drain, rinse and pat dry one 14-ounce block of extra-firm tofu. Slice the block crosswise into eight 1/2-inch-thick slabs. Coarsely crumble each slice into smaller, uneven pieces.
2. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add tofu and cook in a single layer, without stirring, until the pieces begin to turn golden brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Then gently stir and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until all sides are golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes more.
3. Add vegetables and sauce and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are just cooked, 1 to 2 minutes more.
To prepare sauce: Whisk the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
To prepare tofu: Follow Steps 1 and 2. Add spinach, mushrooms, scallions and the peanut sauce and finish as directed in Step 3.
