Step 1
Press the 14 oz tofu between paper towels for 5 minutes, then cut into 1-inch cubes. Slice the 2 bell peppers and 8 oz mushrooms into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp of the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until golden on all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Step 3
Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil to the skillet. Add the sliced peppers and mushrooms, and cook until they start to soften, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Add the 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Return the tofu to the skillet.
Step 5
Pour in the 2 tbsp soy sauce and stir everything together. Cook for 2 minutes until the sauce coats the tofu and vegetables. Serve hot.
