Instructions

  1. 1

    Press the extra firm tofu (1 block) for 30 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into 1 inch cubes.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, toss the tofu cubes with light soy sauce (0.5 tbsp), garlic powder (1 tsp), onion powder (0.5 tsp), paprika (1 tsp), sea salt (0.5 tsp), cornstarch (3 tsp), sesame oil (1 tsp), and ground black pepper (0.25 tsp) until thoroughly coated.

  3. 3

    Arrange the tofu in a single row in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even browning.

  4. 4

    Remove from the air fryer and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
