Creamy Spicy Peanut Sauce
- To a pan, add 1 tbsp oil then sauté onion for 3 minutes. Add in garlic and cook for another 3 minutes then add in peanuts. Toss and toast peanuts for 30 seconds then add to a blender along with the water, chipotle peppers and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. Taste and add more salt to your liking!
Crispy Tofu
- Remove tofu from package and wrap in a couple paper towels gently pressing on tofu to release a bit of the moisture. Cut tofu into cubes then roll each tofu cube in corn starch making sure each side is coasted.
- Bring a hot skilled to medium heat and add enough avocado oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Once hot, add cubed tofu and cook on each side until golden and crispy. Season with salt, then once removed from pan, place on a plate lined with paper towel.
- Add desired amount of sauce to a pan, heat on low, then add in crispy tofu to the pan and toss to coat with the sauce. Serve over rice and enjoy!
