Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) package lo mein noodles
2 ½ tablespoons sesame oil, divided
1 (16 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained and cubed
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ cup soy sauce
½ cup teriyaki sauce
½ cup brown sugar
1 stalk green onion, chopped
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, or to taste

Steps:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add lo mein noodles and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 6 minutes. Drain well.
While the noodles are cooking, heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large pan over medium heat. When hot, place tofu in the pan and saute until browned on all sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer tofu to a plate.
Heat remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil in the same pan. Add garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
Combine soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, brown sugar, and remaining 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil in a small bowl. Pour into the pan. Add tofu and lo mein noodles; toss to coat in the sauce mixture.
Serve garnished with green onion and sesame seeds.
