Calories: 547kcal
Ingredients
Ginger Garlic Tofu
- 14 ounces firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon low sodium gluten free tamari
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil + a little more for cooking
- 2 teaspoons minced ginger
- 1 clove garlic minced
Chinese Pizza - per 7" pizza
- 1 - 2 tablespoons gluten free hoisin sauce
- 3 tablespoons Ginger Garlic Tofu crumbled
- 3 tablespoons chopped red pepper
- 2 tablespoon chopped green onion
- 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
- Gluten free pizza crust mix or premade dough - I used Namaste
Instructions
Ginger Garlic Tofu
- Press tofu with a tofu press or wrapped in a towel with a heavy object on top of tofu for at least 15 minutes to get water out.
- Combine garlic, ginger, tamari, and sesame oil.
- Slice tofu and put in marinade. Marinate overnight for the strongest flavor, or if you're in a hurry, marinate for at less an hour.
- Heat sesame oil in a pan and add tofu. Cook on medium heat until golden brown, then flip and cook other side until golden brown.
Chinese Pizza
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Make/cook pizza crust according to directions.*
- Chop red pepper. Set aside.
- Spoon hoisin sauce on pizza crust. I used only 1 tablespoon because it is so sweet. If you like it sweeter, use 1 ½ - 2 tablespoons.
- Spread Ginger Garlic Tofu on pizza crust. Sprinkle on red pepper. Cook pizza at 450°F for 10 minutes, or until red pepper is crisp tender.*
- While pizza is cooking, chop cilantro and green onion. Sprinkle on cooked pizza.
Notes
My pizza crust needs to be cooked twice, so I cooked it for 10 minutes before adding topiings. Adjust instructions according to your pizza crust.
