Instructions

Step 1

Start by cooking rice. If using a rice cooker, this will take about 20 minutes. Once cooked, fluff, then set aside and keep warm.

Step 2

Meanwhile, press the tofu for to release any excess liquid. Once pressed, slice into cubes and coat with cornstarch and toss gently with oil.

Step 3

Heat a couple tablespoons of oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Once warm, add tofu and pan fry on each side until brown and crispy.

Step 4

Whisk the stir fry sauce together and add to the skillet along with the broccoli florets. Stir to combine and let cook for about 5 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and the sauce has thickened.

Step 5

To serve, portion warm rice into serving bowls. Top with tofu and broccoli, ladling on additional sauce, if desired.

Step 6

Serve immediately garnished with sesame seeds, sliced green onion, and chili sauce.
