Press tofu between paper towels to absorb excess moisture. Set aside. Heat 12-inch nonstick skillet or large wok over medium-high heat. Add peanut oil to pan; swirl to cover bottom. When oil is hot, add tofu. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, just until light golden brown. Remove tofu from skillet.
