Slice the tofu into 8 even slices. Dredge one slice in the flour, then dip in the flax mixture, then coat with crumbs. Set on the plate and repeat with the rest of the tofu. Place both plates next to the stove and line the empty one with paper towels. Heat ¼ c oil over medium hight heat, add 4 pieces of tofu, and sauté for about 4 minutes, until golden and crisp. Gently flip and sauté the other side, then transfer to the paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with the rest of the tofu. Meanwhile, toss the arugula and tomatoes with about half of the dressing. Transfer a quarter of the salad to each dinner plate, then top with two pieces of tofu and a lemon wedge. Drizzle each plate with about a T of dressing and serve hot. |
