Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Tofu: Start by pressing the extra firm tofu for 15-20 minutes to remove excess moisture. Cube the tofu and season with blackened seasoning.
  2. Brown the Tofu: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and sauté until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  3. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Toss in diced onion and chopped carrots, sautéing for 5-8 minutes until translucent and tender.
  4. Add Vegetables and Broth: Introduce green beans and diced tomatoes to the skillet along with their juices and broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  5. Combine Tofu and Peas: Gently fold in black-eyed peas and crispy tofu, stirring to combine and heat through for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve hot, optionally over rice or quinoa, and garnish with fresh parsley.
