This Low Sodium Orange Tofu is a great vegan alternative to orange chicken, without the salt! A healthy gluten free high protein vegan dinner. This tofu is fantastic to serve with vegetable stir fry and some freshly steamed sticky rice.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, tear the tofu right off the block into large chunks, about 1 square inch. Place the tofu in the bowl, and toss it with corn starch, sunflower oil, garlic salt, and turmeric. Mix well to combine.
Place coated tofu on the lined sheet pan, and bake for 40 minutes, flipping halfway.
For the Sauce
In a large saucepan, add the sunflower oil, garlic, and ginger root. Sauté over low heat for 4-5 minutes until garlic and ginger begin to brown.
Add the liquid aminos, orange juice and chili flakes and bring to a boil.
Whisk in the corn starch to thicken the sauce, and continue to stir over low heat.
Once tofu has finished cooking, toss with the orange sauce. Top with sesame seeds and green onion, and serve with rice and veggies. Enjoy!
