Maple Chili Glazed Tofu

Step 1

Press as much water out of the tofu as you can and cut it into pieces.  You can do large pieces or small pieces.  Place the tofu in a bowl and sprinkle with tamari and cornstarch.  Carefully mix until each piece of tofu is coated.

Step 2

Heat a large pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.  Once oil is heated, carefully place the tofu in and let cook for about 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.  Drain any excess oil of the pan.

Step 3

Make the glaze while the tofu is cooking.  Add all glaze ingredients to a bowl and mix until combined.  Pour over the tofu and cook until the glaze has thickened and can coat the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 4

Best when served hot but can also be reheated at a later time.
