Ingredients
Spicy Marinade:
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/4 cup sliced scallions
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, plus more for garnish
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 16 ounces firm tofu, drained and pressed
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- 2 teaspoons olive oil, for oiling the pan
- salt/pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Rinse and drain your tofu, then press using a tofu press or wrap in paper towels and place heavy books or pan on top. Let drain for at least 10-15 minutes, this will help the marinade be absorbed.
- Whisk together the ingredients for the spicy sauce.
- Cut the tofu into triangles and place in a single layer on a oiled baking sheet. Drizzle with 1/3 of the the spicy sauce then bake for 12 minutes.
- Flip tofu and drizzle with half of the remaining sauce. Add the green beans to the other side of the pan in a single layer, as possible. Drizzle with remaining sauce and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Return back to the oven and bake until tofu is browned and slightly crispy, about 12-15 minutes.
- Sprinkle with remaining sesame seeds, if desired, and serve.
