1
Preheat the air-fryer to 400°F.
2
In a bowl, mix 1 tablespoon soy sauce with the sesame oil. Add tofu cubes to the bowl and gently toss until all tofu pieces are coated.
3
Lightly coat the air-fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray. Place the tofu in the basket and cook for 20 minutes, or until golden and crispy, stirring halfway through.
4
In the same air-fryer basket, add chopped onion, red bell pepper strips and sugar snap peas. Cook for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are crisp yet tender.
5
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a saucepan, combine the remaining 5 tablespoons of soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, grated ginger, and crushed red pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes or until it reduces to about half a cup.
6
Transfer the crispy tofu and vegetables into a serving dish. Pour the prepared sauce on top and toss everything together gently. Serve hot over cooked brown rice.
