Last minute touches & Time to assemble! Place both cooked rices in the bottom of a large salad bowl (wide flat ones are best). Microwave the broccoli for approximately 2 to 3 minutes to keep it tender-crunchy. Heat a skillet on high, reduce to medium-high, place the Tofu in small batches to get crusted brown from the marinade.
