Steps

  1. 1Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Drizzle the olive oil evenly all over the parchment paper.
  2. 2Slice the tofu in half, length wise, and then place on a layer of paper towels. Place another layer of paper towels on top. Place a heavy skillet or pan on top of the tofu and press for 15-20 minutes to release extra moisture.
  3. 3Once the tofu has been pressed, cut it into cubes and then transfer to a mixing bowl.
  4. 4Season the tofu with sesame oil and coconut aminos and toss. Then, sprinkle on the cornstarch and toss until well coated.
  5. 5Transfer the tofu cubes to the parchment lined sheet pan in an even layer. Bake the tofu for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Give the tofu a toss every 7-10 minutes to ensure that it gets golden and crispy on all sides.
  6. 6Serve the tofu, garnished with scallion and green onion, and with the dipping sauce and enjoy!
