Mango Cilantro Tofu Tacos
Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil, or more as needed
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 serrano chile pepper, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 (14 ounce) packages tofu, cut into chunks
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, finely chopped (stems and leaves separated)
  • 1/4 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 2 mangos, peeled and cut into small chunks
  • 1/4 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
  • 1 pinch chili powder, or to taste
  • salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander, or to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and pour coconut oil onto the bottom of it. Allow the oil to warm up completely before adding the next ingredients.
2
Next, add sliced onions, diced serrano peppers, and minced garlic to the skillet; stir constantly until they turn a light golden brown color, approximately 10 minutes have passed.
3
Now, add the tofu to the skillet and stir it gently so that it's evenly coated with the oil and vegetables.
4
Combine chopped cilantro stems, 1/4 of the taco seasoning packet, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1 teaspoon ground coriander into the tofu mixture; stir well until the flavors are well combined and the tofu is cooked through, taking around 5 minutes.
5
Add diced mangos to the skillet and sprinkle with 1/4 of the taco seasoning packet; cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, waiting until the desired consistency is reached before stirring.
6
Sprinkle a pinch of chili powder and salt over the mixture; stir it gently so that everything is well coated.
7
If desired, add a bit more cumin and coriander to the mixture for extra flavor.
8
Continue to simmer the tofu-mango mixture over low heat until most of the liquid has evaporated, approximately 10 more minutes have passed.
9
Just before serving, stir in the chopped cilantro leaves for a burst of fresh flavor.
