How to Make Pineapple Tofu Shrimp Saute
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic, 8 oz shrimp (peeled and deveined), and 8 oz firm or extra-firm tofu (pressed and cubed).
- Sauté until shrimp turn pink and opaque and tofu is lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes.
