Prep your protein
- Tofu: Pat the tofu dry with paper towels; cut into ½-inch cubes.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add your protein and cook, stirring occasionally, until the protein is browned and just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes for chicken and 3 to 6 minutes for all other proteins. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and season to taste with salt and pepper. Wipe out the pan. While your protein cooks, prepare the remaining ingredients.
