Ingredients to prepare the oven baked gluten free tofu nuggets recipe

- 1 (1/4-inch) knob ginger, minced

Instructions to prepare the oven baked gluten free tofu nuggets recipe
Place tofu in a resealable plastic bag. Add 1/2 cup San-J Tamari sauce, garlic and ginger. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes. Remove tofu from marinade. Discard marinade. Pat tofu dry with paper towels.
Mix breadcrumbs and paprika together in medium bowl. In a separate medium bowl, whisk flour and water together until a thick paste forms. Dredge tofu in flour mixture, letting excess drip off, then into bread crumbs, coating evenly on all sides. Place tofu cubes side by side on a baking sheet. Bake until golden-brown, about 30-40 minutes, flipping tofu halfway through.
In a small skillet, lightly roast sesame seeds and save.
Serve tofu with remaining San-J Tamari sauce and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
Enjoy with steamed vegetables and a serving of crunchy oven baked French fries!
