Prepare tofu
Line a plate with paper towels and press the firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut into 1-inch cubes.

Make marinade
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce (2 tbsp), rice vinegar (1 tbsp), sesame oil (1 tbsp), minced garlic (1 clove), and grated ginger (1 tsp). Set aside and let flavors mingle for 10 minutes.

Coat tofu
Toss the tofu cubes in the marinade and sprinkle with cornstarch (1 tbsp) to coat evenly.

Cook vegetables
Heat neutral oil (1 tsp) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper (0.5 cups) and broccoli florets (0.5 cups); sauté until bright and tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
