Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.

  2. 2

    Press tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut into 1-inch cubes. Toss tofu cubes with cornstarch until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook, turning occasionally, until golden and crispy on all sides, 7-10 minutes. Remove tofu and set aside.

  4. 4

    In the same pan, add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add bell pepper, carrots, and snap peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until just tender.

  5. 5

    In a bowl, whisk together all peanut sauce ingredients until smooth.

  6. 6

    Add cooked noodles, peanut sauce, and tofu to the skillet with the vegetables. Toss everything together until well coated and heated through, about 2 minutes.

  7. 7

    Top with green onions, roasted peanuts, cilantro, and serve with lime wedges.
