What You'll Need
Instructions
Cook Rice
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450ºF with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and generously brush with oil. In a medium saucepan, combine rice, 2 cups water, and 1 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 17 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
Drain and Cook Tofu
Step 2
While rice cooks, drain tofu, wrap in a paper towel (or clean kitchen towel), and gently press to release excess water; cut into 1-inch cubes. Transfer to prepared baking sheet and lightly drizzle with oil. Bake on upper oven rack until tofu is golden-brown, crisp, and easily lifts from baking sheet, about 20 minutes.
Prep and Cook Broccoli
Step 3
While tofu cooks, cut broccoli into ½-inch florets, if necessary. Toss on a second rimmed baking sheet with 1½ tablespoons oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Bake on lower oven rack until tender and browned in spots, 6–8 minutes.
Make Sauce
Step 4
Remove tofu and broccoli from oven and carefully add to bowl with teriyaki-chili sauce; toss to combine. Serve tofu and broccoli over rice with some of the sesame seeds sprinkled over top, as desired. Enjoy!
Step 5
In a large bowl, whisk to combine all of the Thai sweet chili sauce and teriyaki sauce.
