Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 to 16-oz package tofu 396 to 453 g, extra firm
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce 15 mL
  • 1 Tbsp neutral cooking oil 15 mL, generic cooking oil
  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce 110 g

Instructions

  1. Press: Press tofu for at least 15 minutes, using either a tofu press or by wrapping it in a clean towel and setting a heavy pan on top of it, letting the moisture drain.
  2. Prep: Tear tofu roughly into bite-sized chunks. Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
  3. Bake Tofu: In a medium bowl, toss torn tofu with soy sauce and oil. Sprinkle with cornstarch and toss to coat. Arrange in a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Cook for 30 minutes, flipping the tofu over halfway through cooking, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Sauce: Heat teriyaki sauce in the microwave or on the stove. Stir in tofu pieces.
  5. Serve: Serve hot with rice and your favorite vegetable!

Notes

  • Storage: You can keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Reheat it in the airfryer or by pan frying to get them crispy again.
  • Can I prepare this recipe in advance?
  • While the tofu is best enjoyed fresh for optimal texture, you can prepare it a few hours in advance and reheat it in the oven or on the stovetop. Keep the sauce separate until just before serving to maintain the tofu's crispiness.
