    • 1/4 cup soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
    • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
    • 2 teaspoons Asian-style chili paste
    • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

  • Vegetables

STEPS

1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.

2

Whisk together caramel topping, soy sauce, peanut butter, vinegar, chili paste, and toasted sesame oil in a small bowl to prepare the sauce.

3

Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook cubed tofu, stirring frequently, until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove tofu from skillet.

4

Add more vegetable oil as needed to the skillet. Cook onion and garlic, stirring frequently, until softened, about 3 minutes. Then add cabbage; cook, stirring frequently, until nearly tender, 3 to 4 minutes.

5

Return tofu to the skillet along with the sauce and apple; cook, stirring frequently, until apple starts to soften, about 1 to 2 minutes.

6

Add cooked linguine to the skillet, toss, and cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Garnish with peanuts and cilantro, and serve with lime wedges.
