### Ingredients:

* 1 block (14-16 ounces) extra-firm or super-firm tofu, pressed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
* 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
* 1 teaspoon cornstarch
* 1 tablespoon sesame oil (divided)
* 1 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
* 1 medium head of broccoli, cut into small florets
* 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
* 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
* 1 cup snap peas or snow peas
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1-inch piece fresh ginger, grated
* 1/4 cup stir-fry sauce (store-bought or homemade – see Quick Tip below for simple homemade version)
* Cooked brown rice or quinoa, for serving
* Sesame seeds and chopped green onions, for garnish (optional)

### Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. In a medium bowl, gently toss the pressed and cubed tofu with soy sauce and cornstarch until evenly coated. This helps create a slightly crispy exterior.
2. Heat 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil and 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding). Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.
3. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil and 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly tender-crisp.
4. Add the sliced red and yellow bell peppers and snap peas to the pan. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are bright and tender-crisp.
