Cómo preparar Asian Crispy Tofu Salad
- In a 9x9 inch baking dish, whisk together the marinade ingredients (see below).
- Press 1 block (14oz) firm or extra-firm tofu to remove excess water. Slice lengthwise into two thinner slabs.
- Gently blot the tofu with paper towels to remove surface moisture.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Carefully place the tofu slabs in the preheated skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Flip using a large spatula.
- Transfer the tofu to the prepared marinade in the baking dish. Gently turn to coat.
- Let the tofu marinate for at least 15 minutes (up to 30 minutes).
- Using a sharp knife, cut each tofu slab into 16 smaller squares (3 lengthwise and 3 widthwise cuts per slab).
- Gently toss the tofu in the marinade to redistribute the flavors.
- Remove the garlic and ginger slices before serving. Enjoy warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Serve over greens with your favorite dressing or a splash of rice vinegar for extra zing!
