Ingredients for Sheet Pan Teriyaki Glazed Tofu with Roasted Snow Peas and Carrots

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce or tamari, maple syrup, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger until well combined.
Place the tofu cubes in a mixing bowl and pour half of the teriyaki sauce over them. Gently toss to coat evenly and let marinate for 5-10 minutes.
In a separate bowl, toss the snow peas and carrot sticks with a light spray of cooking oil and a pinch of salt.
Arrange the marinated tofu in a single layer on one half of the prepared sheet pan. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the tofu.
Spread the snow peas and carrots in a single layer on the other half of the sheet pan.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping the tofu and stirring the vegetables halfway through for even cooking and caramelization.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and drizzle the cornstarch slurry over the tofu and vegetables. Toss gently to coat and spread everything evenly.
Return to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce thickens and the tofu develops a glossy, caramelized finish.
Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and sliced scallions over the tofu and vegetables before serving.
Serve hot, optionally with steamed jasmine rice or your favorite whole grain to complete this wholesome Asian-inspired vegan meal.
