Ingredients
- 16 ounces firm tofu, cubed
- 1 cup unsweetened soy milk or almond milk
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs (use homemade gluten-free or store bought gluten-free crumbs for GF version)
- 1/2 cup whole-wheat (or regular flour- use gluten-free flour for GF version)
- 1/2 cup honey, or more, to taste
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Cooked Rice or Quinoa for serving (I used Planet Rice’s California Blonde rice here)
- Sesame seeds, sliced scallions, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place the milk, breadcrumbs and flour in separate shallow bowls.
- One at a time, dip a cube of tofu into the flour, then milk, and then the panko breadcrumbs.
- Place in a single layer on a baking sheet and cook for 15 minutes until golden brown. Flip, then cook another 10-15 minutes until golden. Remove from oven.
- While the tofu is cooking, combine honey, garlic and soy sauce in a medium saucepan. In a separate bowl, combine the cornstarch and 1/4 cup water, making sure the cornstarch is completely dissolved.
- Add the cornstarch mixture into the honey saucepan and heat the sauce over medium heat, stirring often, until thickened about 2-3 minutes.
- Place the honey mixture in a large bowl and gently toss with cooked tofu pieces
- Serve immediately over cooked rice or quinoa, drizzling on any remaining sauce.
- Garnish, if desired, with sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
