Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

  • 1 14 ounce pkg. firm, tub-style tofu, drained, patted dry, and cut into 1-inch cubes

  • 2 tablespoon cornstarch

  • Nonstick cooking spray

  • 1 medium onion, cut into thin wedges

  • 1 ¼ cup bite-size strips red sweet pepper

  • 1 cup fresh snow or sugar snap pea pods, trimmed

  • 3 tablespoon rice vinegar

  • 2 tablespoon honey

  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper

  • 2 cup hot cooked brown rice

Directions

  1. Preheat an air-fryer to 400°F. In a large bowl stir together 1 Tbsp. of the soy sauce and the sesame oil. Add tofu; toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with cornstarch; toss gently to coat. Lightly coat air-fryer basket with cooking spray. Place tofu in prepared basket; cook 10 minutes. Stir gently. Cook 10 minutes more or until tofu is golden and crispy. Remove from basket.

  2. Coat onion, sweet pepper, and pea pods with cooking spray; add to basket. Cook 5 minutes or until crisp-tender.

  3. Meanwhile, for sauce, in a small saucepan stir together remaining 5 Tbsp. soy sauce, vinegar, honey, ginger, and crushed red pepper. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes or until reduced to 1/2 cup.

  4. In a serving dish toss tofu and vegetables with sauce. Serve with rice.
