Steps:
- Drain the tofu, then wrap in a clean dish towel and place a heavy object, such as a cast iron pan, on top. Press the tofu for 20-30 minutes, until the towel is soaked through.
- Place the pressed tofu back in its container and wrap with reusable wrap. Freeze for at least 6 hours, up to overnight.
- Remove the tofu from the freezer and place in a microwave-safe bowl over a kitchen towel. Defrost in the microwave until completely thawed and the towel is soaked through, 10-15 minutes.
- Wrap the tofu in a clean kitchen towel and press again for another 20-30 minutes, until the dish towel is soaked through and the tofu is half its original thickness.
- While the tofu is pressing, make the marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the tamari, maple syrup, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, and ¼ cup (60 ml) grapeseed oil.
- Tear the tofu into bite-size pieces that resemble chicken tenders or nuggets. Add the tofu to the marinade and stir to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 1 hour, stirring halfway through.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the tofu and cook for 4-5 minutes, until browned on one side, basting with some of the marinade. Flip the tofu and cook for another 4-5 minutes, until browned on the other side.
- Serve the tofu as desired.

Steps:
- Start the rice first in a medium non-stick pot, and get it going while you are chopping ingredients. It will take about 20-25 minutes to cook the rice. Alternatively, you can just use a rice cooker.
- Additionally, you will need 2 other sauce pans, one shallow one to cook tofu, and another deep one to cook the main ingredients.
- Heat medium sauce pan on medium heat, and add soy sauce when the pan is hot. Add tofu, cover and cook for 5-7 minutes. Stir tofu and cook (covered) for another 5-7 minutes.
- A few minutes after starting the tofu cooking, heat another deep sauce pan. It is important that the tofu and main ingredients finish around the same time so that the tofu does not dry out. If the tofu does finish early, just turn off the heat and let it sit until you are ready to add it to the main ingredients in the second sauce pan.
- Bring the second pan to med-high heat, add the olive oil, and then add the garlic, ginger, and onion. Stir fry for a 4-5 minutes or until the onion becomes a little soft (according to your tastes). Add the mushrooms, sugar snap peas, and carrots. Add the fish sauce and water. Stir fry for another 3-5 minutes. Reduce the heat to a medium setting, and add the chicken.
- Cook for another 5-7 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken cubes, You want to make sure the chicken is cooked through, but not too dry. Add the tofu from the first pan and stir fry for one additional minute.
- Serve the rice and the chicken tofu dish together. I usually put the rice in first, add some chicken-tofu, and then a few sprigs of cilantro, and mix it up. That's it.

- Drain the tofu. Wrap each block in a double layer of paper towels and pat dry, pressing down on the tofu lightly to squeeze out excess moisture. Cut the tofu into 3/4-inch cubes.
- In a large nonstick skillet or wok, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot but not smoking, add the tofu (be careful, as the oil will splatter a little bit) and drizzle with 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Sauté, stirring every minute or so until the tofu is nicely colored on all sides and the moisture has cooked off, about 8 to 10 minutes. Don’t feel that you need to stir constantly. Sitting for a while on one side is what will allow the tofu to brown. Add the garlic, roughly two-thirds of the green onion, ginger, chili paste, and the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Stir and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add several large handfuls of spinach, stirring as you go so that it wilts and you can fit more in the pan. Once the first addition has wilted, continue to add and wilt the spinach by handfuls, until all of the spinach is added. It will seem like a ridiculous amount at first but will cook down considerably. Stir in the sesame seeds. Stir in the sesame oil. Remove from the heat. Sprinkle the reserved green onions over the top. Serve hot, with brown rice, noodles, or whatever you like, along with a few dashes of additional soy sauce and chili paste or flakes to taste.
