Garlic Teriyaki Tofu is a vegetarian dish made by marinating firm tofu in a mixture of garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and teriyaki sauce. The tofu is then pan-fried until it becomes crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The garlic and teriyaki sauce impart a sweet and savory flavor to the tofu, while the ginger adds a subtle spicy note.

This dish can be enjoyed as a protein-packed main dish with rice and vegetables or as a side dish to complement other Asian-inspired dishes. It’s a healthy and delicious way to incorporate plant-based protein into your diet.
