Tip: Place the tofu cubes on a wire cookie rack then place several heavy pans on top of the tofu to remove the excess water.
2
Let stand 20-30 minutes.

Doing this will allow the tofu to soak up the marinade more effectively.

Add the drained tofu and toss to coat.
7
Marinate for 20-30 minutes.

Cook until tofu is golden brown on all sides, approximately 5 minutes.

13
Remove tofu to a plate lined with paper towels and set aside.
14
Reduce heat to medium-high and add the peanut oil to the same pan.
15
Saute the onion until lightly browned.
