Marinated Seared Tofu

This low-sodium, kidney-friendly marinated seared tofu is packed with flavor, simple to make, and versatile. I like to serve it on a bed of rice with stir-fried vegetables. We also recommend trying it on a sandwich!

Ingredients 

  • 16 oz Extra-firm tofu
  • ¼ cup Coconut aminos
  • 3 tbsp Rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tsp Sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp Ginger, minced Optional
  • 3 tbsp Vegetable oil

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. 
  • Place the tofu in a shallow dish or in a sealable bag and pour the marinade over the tofu. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour, covered, in the refrigerator. Marinate overnight for even better results.
  • In a large saute pan or cast-iron skillet, add vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat. Remove the tofu from the marinade and add to the pan. Save the remaining marinade. Fry the tofu until golden brown on each side. About 3-5 minutes per side.
  • Once browned, pour the leftover marinade into the pan with the tofu and stir to coat. Remove from heat, and serve over rice and stir-fried vegetables.
