Directions

  1. Thaw tofu, 8 hours to overnight. Place in a colander with a weight on top to squeeze moisture out.

  2. Place tofu on a flat work surface and cut into approximately 16 'nuggets.'

  3. Mix milk, mustard, garlic salt, onion powder, and pepper together in a bowl. Pour break crumbs into a separate bowl. Dip each nugget into the milk mixture and roll into the bread crumbs, coating completely.

  4. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add nuggets, cook, flipping halfway, until golden brown, about 7 minutes.

Recipe Yield

16 nuggets
