Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • Add 1 cup (2 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • Once boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Peel, then halve carrot lengthwise. Cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Cut bok choy into 1-inch pieces. Using a strainer, rinse bok choy under running water to wash away any hidden dirt. 
  • Thinly slice green onion.
  • Combine 1/3 cup (1/2 cup) water, honey-garlic sauce and soy sauce in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Cook veggies
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add 3 tbsp (1/3 cup) water, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt and carrots. Cook, stirring often, until water is absorbed and carrots are tender-crisp, 4-5 min.
  • Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then peppers. Cook, stirring often, until veggies are tender-crisp, 3-4 min.
  • Add bok choy. Cook, stirring often, until veggies are tender, 2-3 min. 
  • Remove from heat, then transfer veggies to a plate. Cover to keep warm.
Prep tofu
4
  • Meanwhile, pat tofu dry with paper towels. Using a fork, poke tofu all over, then cut into 1-inch pieces. 
  • Season with salt and pepper. Add tofu and Cream Sauce Spice Blend to another medium bowl. Toss well to coat each tofu piece.
Cook tofu and sauce
5
  • Reheat the same pan (from step 3) over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Cook for 6-7 min, turning occasionally, until crispy and browned all over. 
  • Add honey-garlic sauce mixture. Bring to a boil.
  • Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens, 2-3 min.
  • Remove from heat, then season with pepper, to taste.
Finish and serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in half the green onions.
  • Divide rice between bowls.
  • Top with veggies and honey-garlic tofu.
  • Sprinkle remaining green onions over top.
