sweet 'n sour tofu (chicken flavored)

Prepare tofu overnight to freeze. This will produce a chewy texture, similar to chicken. This recipe is for 1 cup of sliced tofu.

1 cup of sliced or cubed extra firm tofu, drained
2 T Weber Roasted Garlic & Herb Seasoning
2 T Chicken flavored powdered broth
Zip lock bag

Slice Tofu into small cubes ½ inch squared or slice into strips. Place into boiling water for 15 minutes. Remove. Cool. Press between paper towels to remove excess water. Place in into a shaker bag. Add Seasoning and Chicken flavored powdered broth. Place into freezer. Thaw your tofu when ready to prepare.


For crispy tofu:
prepared, thawed tofu
½ cup all-purpose flour or Corn starch
1 raw egg
Cooking oil

For sauce:
2 T soy sauce
2 T vinegar
2 T brown sugar
3 T ketchup (to taste)
1 T cornstarch (For thicker sauce, use 2-3 T)
¼ t sesame oil (optional)
½ cup water or chicken stock
¼ cup orange juice

For vegetables:
2 stalks green onion, cubed
1 small onion, cubed
1 green bell pepper, cubed
1/2 small carrot, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped


Whisk egg and pour over tofu. Add flour gradually (or corn starch). Mix well until sticky and shiny, break loose pieces of tofu and drop into hot oil 350 degrees. Fry for 5-7 minutes.

They will start to brown. Drain.

Mix water and Corn Starch. Add this and remaining ingredients to sauce pot. Whisk over medium to low heat. It will change from cloudy to translucent. Add more water if too thick. Remove from heat.

Sauté vegetables in a few drops of oil over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Pour in sauce. Combine fried tofu. Mix until all pieces are covered.

Serve with Egg Roll, crab meat cheese rangoon, and vegetable fried rice.
