Preparation Steps
1
Cut the tofu into thick slices and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
2
In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey (or vegan alternative), grated ginger, minced garlic, and black pepper.
3
Place the tofu slices in the marinade and let them sit for at least 15 minutes, allowing them to absorb the flavors.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Toast the sesame seeds until golden brown, then set aside.
5
In the same skillet, cook the tofu slices over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crispy.

Before serving, sprinkle the tofu with the toasted sesame seeds and garnish with fresh cilantro.
