The saucy baked tofu is served over the rice. This recipe is simple and easy, it’s perfect if you’re looking for a meatless and satisfying dinner!
What makes this recipe a “One-Pan” meal?
I named this recipe “One-Pan” because all you have to do is mix all the ingredients in a baking dish and bake. I understand after a long day, the last thing you want to do is lengthy cooking and do the dishes, right? So break the tofu into bite-size pieces with your hands and toss with broccoli. If you have pre-cut broccoli florets, you don’t even need to cut anything. Then mix together the sauce ingredients, drizzle over the tofu and broccoli, and mix. Then let the oven do the job for you.
Here is what you need to make One-Pan Ginger Tofu and Broccoli Bake:
- Firm tofu: best when pressed well to squeeze out the excess water.
- Broccoli florets
- Soy sauce
- Maple syrup
- Garlic
- Ginger
- Chili pepper flakes: add more or less for your desired heat.
- Toasted sesame oil
- Arrowroot starch: thicken the sauce.
- Water
What to serve One-Pan Ginger Tofu and Broccoli Bake with?
This hearty recipe taste so good and belly-warming as it is. But this recipe is designed to be saucy and a little bit salty so that it tastes best when served over rice, making it a wholesome and fulfilling meal. My favorite is brown rice, but use whatever you like or have, like white rice or even leftover rice from last night.
Can I make this recipe Gluten-Free?
You can easily make this recipe gluten-free by using gluten-free tamari instead of soy sauce. Make sure you’re using all the gluten-free products to make this recipe!
