AuthorgoodnesswithgDrain liquid from tofu container. Line a plate or cutting board with a tea towel or several paper towels, and place tofu block on top. Lay another tea towel or few paper towels over tofu, and place something heavy on top (books, cast iron skillet, etc.).
Press tofu for at least 15 minutes - longer if possible. The more liquid you're able to release, the crispier the result will be.
Remove towels, and cut tofu into cubes.
To a medium-sized bowl, add tofu and coconut aminos. Allow to marinate for at least 5 minutes.
Sprinkle tofu with arrowroot or corn starch. Toss to coat.
For air fryer:
Add tofu to basket in an even layer, and air fry at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes until golden, tossing halfway through.
For oven:
Place tofu on a on parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 425 degrees for 25 minutes, flip, and bake for another 20-25 minutes, until golden.
Meanwhile, add all of the sauce ingredients to a bowl, and whisk to dissolve completely.
Heat in a skillet over medium heat until sauce is slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
Toss tofu in orange sauce to coat completely.
Serve with regular rice, cauliflower rice or quinoa alongside your favorite veggies (I love this with roasted broccoli).
Enjoy!
