Sweet, tangy, and grilled to perfection, this Sweet and Sour Pineapple-Glazed Tofu dish was absolutely delectable! I love pineapple (and so does my daughter), so we try to incorporate it into our daily meals as often as we can. There is no better combination than a sweet and sour marinated protein with grilled pineapple and veggies. If you’re a pineapple lover like me, I promise this meal will not disappoint!

Ingredients:

• 16oz block of Super or Extra Firm Tofu
• 1 large head of broccoli
• 20oz can of chopped pineapple (with juice, not syrup)
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large tomato
• 1 sweet/yellow onion
• 2 cloves of fresh garlic
• 1 tsp of ginger powder
• 1 cup rice
• Sweet chili sauce
• Soy sauce
• Rice Wine Vinegar
• Sriracha sauce

Instructions:

1. Rinse and prep veggies. Chop onions, tomatoes, bell peppers into medium sized (~1/2 inch) chunks. Chop broccoli into medium sized chunks. Finely mince garlic. Cut tofu chunks into small cubes similar size to veggies. Strain pineapple chunks from liquid, be sure to save the liquid for the sauce.
2. Cook 1 cup of rice.
3. Salt and pepper tofu, add few dashes of soy sauce and sriracha, mix together, and air fry for 10-15 minutes, shake every 3-5 minutes to ensure even cooking, until nice and crispy.
4. Steam for 10-15minutes until tender. Once cooked add salt and pepper.
5. Heat large stainless steel or cast iron pan to medium heat, add few tbsp of oil
6. Once heated, add minced garlic, onions, bell peppers, as well as dash of salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and starting to soften.
7. Add pineapple chunks, tomatoes, and ginger powder. Cook for ~5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until veggies start to brown and liquid from the tomatoes and pineapple has reduced.
8. Add 1/2 cup of pineapple juice, and stir to deglaze any stuck bits from the pan.
9. Add 1/2 cup of water. Add ~1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar, and sweet chili glaze to taste. For added heat, add sriracha to taste.
10. Cook for ~5minutes to reduce sauce. Once reduced add crispy tofu.
11. Serve on top of rice, with side of broccoli. Enjoy!
