Instructions
Add the tofu to a bowl and sprinkle with arrowroot powder, garlic powder and sea salt. Toss to evenly coat.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a light spray of cooking oil, or up to 1 tbsp of oil for even crispier tofu. Arrange the tofu in an even layer and cook for about 8-10 minutes, flipping every few minutes until all edges are golden and crisp.
While tofu is cooking, add all ingredients for the sauce to a jar and shake or whisk with a fork to combine. Season to taste (you can add more maple syrup for extra sweetness, more sriracha for extra spice, or a pinch of sea salt for extra savoriness).
Reduce heat to low and pour in the sauce, stirring and giving it a swirl to evenly coat the tofu and let thicken. Immediately sprinkle with green onion and sesame seeds and toss to combine.
