Steps:
- Cut the tofu across the width into 6 slabs. Cut each slab in half to make 12 squares. Blot the tofu to remove some of the moisture and set aside.
- Whisk together the balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl and set aside.
- Saute the broccoli in 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat until bright green and starting to brown in places, about 5 minutes. Remove broccoli from the pan.
- Saute the red pepper in 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat until it starts to brown, about 3 minutes. Remove the red pepper from the pan.
- Saute the tofu in the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until browned, 2 minutes per side.
- Add the vinegar mixture to the tofu and simmer until slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
- Return the broccoli and peppers to the pan and gently toss to coat with the sauce.
- Garnish with the scallions and serve with brown rice or another whole grain.
