Ingredients:
- 1 block (14 oz) smoked tofu, drained and cubed
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into small cubes
- 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 yellow onion, diced
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika (smoked paprika for extra flavor)
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional for heat)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp olive oil (or cooking spray)
- Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the sweet potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the diced sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Lightly drizzle with olive oil (or spray with cooking spray) and season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of paprika. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and lightly caramelized.
- Cook the tofu: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a bit of oil. Add the smoked tofu cubes to the pan and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become crispy and golden on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the veggies: In the same skillet, add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the garlic powder, cumin, and chili flakes (if using). Stir to coat and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Combine the ingredients: Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, add them to the skillet with the sautéed veggies. Toss everything together to combine. Then gently fold in the crispy smoked tofu.
- Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or spices if needed. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro and serve hot.
