These panko crusted tofu nuggets are crispy on the outside and soft in the center. This vegetarian spin on chicken nuggets is the recipe you didn’t know you needed.
Set up Breading Station
Grab three plates. On the first plate you’ll add your cornstarch, table salt and a healthy pinch of cracked black pepper. On the second plate you’ll add the whisked egg. On the third plate, you’ll combine the panko breadcrumbs, cayenne, garlic powder, and onion powder. Set aside.
Bread the Nuggets
Dredge the tofu through the cornstarch, making sure to evenly coat all sides, then through the egg wash, and finally through the panko breadcrumb mixture. Repeat until all tofu nuggets are breaded.
