Instructions
  • Tofu

    • 1Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • 2Cut tofu in half lengthwise. Sandwich slices between paper towels and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
    • 3Cube tofu and toss with cornstarch, until coated. Arrange on a baking sheet and cook 20-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Coconut Rice:

    • 1In a small pot, combine rice with 1 cup water, coconut milk and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil then reduce heat. Simmer, covered for 15 minutes, until rice is tender. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, until ready to serve.
  • Peppers

    • 1While tofu and rice are cooking, in a small bowl, stir ¼ cup lime juice with 1/2 teaspoon salt until salt dissolves. Add the sliced peppers, and a pinch of pepper. Toss to combine and set aside.
  • Peanut Sauce

    • 1Add ¼ cup lime juice, peanut butter, oil, ginger, maple syrup and ¾ cup water to a food processor or blender. Process until smooth and season to taste with salt.
    • 2Remove 1 cup peanut sauce to a small bowl and add rice wine vinegar and soy to make the dressing; set aside.
  • Assembly

    • 1Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add tofu and remaining peanut sauce. Cook 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until tofu is coated in the sauce.
    • 2Add the lime zest and HALF of the sliced scallions to the rice, then fluff with a fork.
    • 3Divide the rice between bowls. Top with tofu, arugula and peppers. Drizzle the peanut dressing over top and garnish with remaining sliced scallions and black sesame seeds, if desired.
