This recipe came from my mom, who got it from Family Circle. I haven't tried it yet, but I will soon! I cut out the oyster sauce from the marinade, but if you want to use it, the original recipe called for 1 tablespoon of bottled oyster sauce. Ingredients:
1/3 cup teriyaki sauce |
2 tablespoons rice vinegar |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon splenda sugar substitute |
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 (14 ounce) package extra firm tofu, drained |
2 teaspoons oil |
12 ounces fettuccine |
8 ounces snow peas, strings removed |
1 red pepper, cored,seeded & thinly sliced |
1 onion, medium,halved & cut into half moons |
1/2 cup vegetable broth |
2 teaspoons cornstarch |
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine teriyaki, vinegar, lime juice, ginger, Splenda, red pepper flakes and garlic powder.
2. Open package of tofu and drain.
3. Slice tofu diagonally in half to form 2 triangular shaped pieces; turn triangle onto long flat cut side with point facing up; cut into 3 triangular slices, each about 1/2-inch thick.
4. Repeat with second triangle to form six 1/2-inch thick triangular slices.
5. Spread tofu onto a paper towel-lined tray; top with more paper towels, and cover with a sheet pan; evenly weigh down sheet pan with soup cans and let stand for 10 minutes.
6. Change paper toweling and repeat.
7. Transfer tofu to a shallow glass dish and add marinade; let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, turning slices over after 15 minutes.
8. Drain marinade into a small saucepan.
9. Bring a large pot of water to boiling.
10. Heat a ridged grill pan over medium-high heat and brush with 2 teaspoons oil.
11. Cook fettuccine in boiling water according to package directions, adding snow peas, pepper and onion during the last 4 minutes of cooking.
12. Grill the tofu, about 2 minutes per side, until nicely marked and hot.
13. Stir broth and cornstarch into marinade and bring to a boil; boil until thickened, about 2 minutes.
14. Drain noodles and vegetables.
15. Toss noodles and vegetables with thickened marinade and sprinkle with sesame seeds, then top with grilled tofu.
