Directions:

Cook 1/2 cup white rice in 1 cup of water. Set aside
Drain tofu; wrap in several layers of paper towels on a plate; top with another weighted plate to draw additional water. Continue until ready to cook.
Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a small bowl, combine garlic, jalapeno, soy, ginger, lime juice, sesame oil, fish sauce and honey.
Unwrap the tofu; cut crosswise into 3/4 slices; pat dry.
Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add peanut oil and heat for at least 30 seconds.
Carefully add tofu slices. Do not touch for 2-3 minutes, letting it sear to a golden brown. Carefully flip and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes; Set aside.
In the same hot pan, add the sugar snap peas, scallions (and, if necessary, an additional few drops of peanut oil). Stir-fry the vegetables for 1-2 minutes.
Add the sauce and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Return the tofu to the pan and spoon the sauce over.
Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve over cooked rice.
Garnish with chopped cilantro or basil.
