Instructions

Cut the tofu into ¼-inch (5mm) thick rectangles and pat dry with paper towels. Mix all the ingredients for the sauce together and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the tofu and pan-fry until browned on both sides. Add the sauce to the skillet and lower the heat. Simmer the tofu until the sauce reduces but remains somewhat wet. Turn the tofu over to simmer on both sides.
Transfer the tofu to a serving platter and top with chopped scallions. Serve at room temperature.
