Directions
Prepare the vegetables:
Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced ginger and cook for 30-60 seconds, then add the red pepper strips. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes, which will help the pepper soften slightly.
- Add the broccolini and garlic and cook for 5 more minutes, making sure to remove any garlic that starts to burn and set it aside to add back later. Add a small amount of water or broth if needed to prevent the bottom of the pan from burning. Add the coconut aminos and sesame oil and mix together.
- Continue cooking until the broccolini has softened a bit but still has a bite to it. If you removed the garlic earlier on in cooking, add it back to the pan. Set the pan aside.
Prepare the tofu:
Cut the block of tofu into 1-inch slices and press between two pieces of paper or cloth towels to remove excess moisture. Cut the slices into 1-inch squares.
In a bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Carefully toss the tofu chunks in the flour mixture in batches, setting them aside onto a dry towel once they are dredged in the flour.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tofu cubes and brown them on all sides. Work in batches if needed. Remove the tofu from the pan.
To the pan, add the teriyaki sauce, coconut aminos, ginger, and garlic and cook over medium heat. Whisk until hot and thickened, then add a pinch of chili flakes and a drizzle of sesame oil. Remove from the heat and fold in the browned tofu. Top with scallions and sesame seeds (optional).
Plate your tofu with a portion of the stir-fried vegetables on top of your cauliflower rice (optional) and enjoy.

When it comes to flavor, tofu is a master of disguise. Made from soybeans, it takes on the flavor of anything you cook it in, from broth and gravy to sauces and condiments. In this easy tofu recipe, we paired pan-fried cubes of this vegan protein with Primal Kitchen No-Soy Teriyaki Sauce for a sweet and savory bite that even die-hard meat eaters will love. It's as crave-worthy as your favorite takeout meal (or dare we say even better), made fresh at home!
Our teriyaki is made with real ingredients you can trust, like coconut aminos and orange juice concentrate for a dash of sweetness, and without the cane sugar or corn syrup found in most restaurant sauces. You get all the same delicious teriyaki flavor without compromising on quality or taste. Crisped until beautifully golden and paired with a seasoned broccolini stir-fry mixture, serve it as a lighter lunch plate or atop cauliflower rice for a hearty and filling dinner bowl.
