Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
14oz package extra firm tofu, drained, pressed and cubed
2 cups broccoli florets
1/3 head purple cabbage, sliced
1 cup shredded carrot
1 red bell pepper, diced
Salt & Pepper
Teriyaki Sauce (if not using premade):
1/4 cup water
1 tsp cornstarch
1/2 cup soy sauce (we used gluten free tamari)
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tsp ginger (powder or paste)
1 tbsp sriracha (optional)
Green onion, sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Equipment
Non-Stick Sheet Pan
Parchment Paper or Non-Stick Aluminum Foil (if not using a non-stick sheet pan)
Method
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Drizzle olive oil over your sheet pan. Begin placing your ingredients in "rows" with your chopped tofu, broccoli florets, sliced purple cabbage, shredded carrot and diced bell peppers, toss gently and top with sprinkle salt & pepper on top. Bake for 35 minutes.
While it's baking, in a small bowl, mix together water and cornstarch and slur together. Add in soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, garlic, ginger and sriracha, and mix well.
After it's baked fo 35 minutes, remove the sheet pan from the oven and drizzle in your teriyaki sauce. Toss everything gently to coat and place back in the oven for 10 more minutes.
When finished, remove from oven and serve over rice, quinoa or kale and optionally top with green onions and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
