Sheet pan dinners. One of my favorite kitchen hacks, especially when school and work routines get back in action after break. Just chop, drop and roast. I have a recipe in my upcoming cookbook (out Feb 4th!) for sheet pan fajitas. So, if you haven’t preordered it yet, what are you waiting for? Click here for the details. Anyway, I will show you how easy it is with this recipe for tofu teriyaki? Read on…
Are you as excited about this meal as I am? You can do this with any vegetables and any flavors, but I happen to love teriyaki and always have all of these ingredients on hand, so it makes this meal super easy and a regular around my dinner table. And I think it will be around yours too!
Notes:
- Use whatever vegetables you love. Any bell pepper works, I like an orange one for extra rainbow goodness.
- Toss the tofu and vegetables with the sauce right on the sheet pan for easy cleanup!
Sheetpan Teriyaki Tofu & Vegetables
Easy and delicious!
Ingredients
Tofu and Vegetables
- 1 package extra firm tofu
- 1 medium sized head of broccoli
- 1 small red onion
- 1 zucchini
- 1 bell pepper
- Sunflower oil, for roasting
Teriyaki Sauce
- 1/4 cup tamari
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 tablespoon arrowroot powder
- 1 teaspoon water
Instructions
-
To prepare the tofu and vegetables, preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Press the tofu for 10 minutes. Cut into cubes and toss with a little sunflower oil. Add to the baking sheet.
-
Cut the vegetables, one type at a time, toss with a little oil, and add to the baking sheet.
-
Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, until the vegetables are crispy and the tofu is browning.
-
In the meantime, to make the sauce, add the tamari, water, mirin, maple, and garlic and onion powder to a small saucepan. Bring to a low boil and cook until it starts to reduce, about 10 minutes.
-
Mix the arrowroot with the teaspoon of water in a small bowl. Add it to the sauce. Mix until the sauce thickens up, about 5 minutes.
-
Take the tofu and vegetables out of the oven and toss with the sauce. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
