Instructions
    For Sauce
  1. 1
    Whisk all the ingredients for the sauce together in a bowl. Stir until a smooth consistency. Set aside.
    2. For Tofu
  2. 2
    In a resealable bag, add the cubed tofu and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Carefully shake until no cornstarch remains loose and tofu is lightly coated. Add addition cornstarch if needed 1 teaspoon at a time but DO NOT over coat the tofu.
  3. 3
    Add oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tofu (in batches if needed to not overcrowd). Cook 1-2 minutes then flip and repeat until tofu is golden brown. If working in batches, move to a paper towel lined plate and repeat until all your tofu is cooked.
  4. 4
    Add tofu back to skillet with half of the sauce. Stir together and cook until it's been heated through, about 1-3 minutes.
  5. 5
    Add in half the green onions and stir together. Remove from heat.
  6. 6
    Add tofu to lettuce wraps with remaining green onions and top with add-ons suggested above if desired. Drizzle with more peanut sauce.
