Instructions

1

Prep the Proteins

Press tofu for 10 minutes and slice tempeh into thin strips. Pat both dry with paper towels to ensure maximum browning during cooking.

2

Brown Both Proteins

Heat avocado oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add tempeh first and cook for 3 minutes then add tofu and cook for another 4 minutes turning occasionally until both are golden brown.

3

Add Vegetables and Sauce

Add broccoli florets to the wok and stir fry for 3 minutes. Pour in soy sauce and grated ginger then toss everything together for 2 more minutes until broccoli is tender-crisp.
