# Chili Crunch Tofu

Cuisine: western · Time: 25 minutes · Servings: 3

## Ingredients

- 1 block extra firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- a pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup Yum Yum sauce (affiliate link)
- 1 tablespoon chili crisp (affiliate link)
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 1 1/2 cups rice, uncooked (see notes for the cauli rice I like to make!)
- 1/4 cup green onions for topping

## Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cut tofu in half so you have two even, flat pieces. Press the moisture out of the tofu, using paper towels or a towel. (The more water you remove, the faster it will crisp up in the oven, but I usually don’t spend more than 5-10 minutes here.) Cut tofu into cubes and transfer to a bowl. Add cornstarch, soy sauce, and olive oil. Toss gently to coat. It doesn’t have to be perfectly smooth, but just try to generally get all the pieces semi-covered.
3. Cook rice according to package instructions.
4. Transfer to the baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring once or twice, to get the tofu evenly browned and crispy.
5. Mix Yum Yum sauce and chili crisp in a small bowl.
6. When the tofu is done, toss it with several tablespoons of sauce, reserving sauce for topping.
7. Serve with rice, on a salad, noodles, whatever you like. Dollop with extra sauce if you want, and top with green onions. OOO-eee this is good!
