Balsamic Tofu

By plantbasedrd

Recipe:

Ingredients:

1 block extra-firm tofu, pressed and drained (DONT skip this step if you can’t press it to opt for super firm tofu instead)
2 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 tbsp tamari
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp dry basil
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp fennel seeds
7–8 fresh basil leaves
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
Heat up 1 tablespoon of oil and pan-fry the tofu on both sides along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Flip tofu as needed until the tofu has browned on at least 2 sides. In a small bowl, add the remaining ingredients except for the fresh basil and whisk together to combine and pour into the pan with your tofu. Sauté tofu with the sauce for about 3-5 minutes or until the sauce has reduced. Remove from heat, stir in the fresh basil and spoon the tofu and some of the sauce onto a plate.
