Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Pan-Fried Tofu.
Step 1
Start by slicing your drained tofu into delightful 1/4-inch thick slabs, perfect for achieving that crispy texture.
Step 2
On a plate, mix together some nutritional yeast, garlic powder, salt, and a sprinkle of black pepper to create a flavorful coating.
Step 3
Now, take each tofu slice and gently roll it in this tasty mixture, ensuring every inch is covered for maximum flavor.

In a nonstick skillet, warm up a splash of olive oil over low to medium heat—this is where the magic happens! Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the coated tofu slices in the skillet.
Step 5
Let them sizzle away for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown and develop that irresistible crispy crust.
