This Teriyaki Tofu Is A Weekly Event In My Life

Remember the tofu from the ramen bowls? I can’t stop making it. I shared this bowl combo on Instagram the other day and got lots of requests to write up the recipe, which brings us to this moment!
Lately what I’ve been doing is:
Plating up some steamed jasmine ricePutting a scoop of that saucy, chewy tofu on itAdding some steamed broccoli (or air fryer broccoli!)Dolloping it all with a tangy, lightly spicy kimchi mayoFinishing it off with green onions and/or togarashi or some kind of sesame-seedy sprinkleIf you do nothing else with this, just make the teriyaki tofu. That shreddy tofu is so good. It gets coated and caramelized with a teriyaki sauce (store-bought, no prob) and laced with just enough fresh garlic to make your house smell like a restaurant, so, yeah, I’m pretty into it.
It’s a high-flavor, fast and easy dinner recipe, topped with a creamy-mouthfeel-kinda sauce, that’s conveniently also packed with fiber and protein. I sound like a salesperson right now and if that’s my legacy for these teriyaki tofu bowls, so be it!
Hope you love this combo!

Prep Tofu: Wrap the tofu with a few paper towels, or a clean kitchen cloth, and press the tofu to remove some of the moisture. (I use the high protein tofu from Trader Joe’s and it needs almost no pressing.)Grate Tofu: Gently grate the tofu on a box grater, turning it into fine shreds.Fry Tofu: Heat the oil over medium high heat in a nonstick pan. Add tofu and pan-fry for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned a little bit crisped.Sauce It: Add the teriyaki sauce and grated garlic to the hot pan. Toss to combine. (It’ll smell amazing when the garlic hits!)Make Kimchi Mayo: Mix the kimchi and mayo; season to taste.Serve: Serve the tofu over rice, with broccoli and a dollop of the kimchi mayo. I like to finish it off with green onions, more teriyaki sauce, and a spicy sprinkle like togarashi!
