Method:

Pat the tofu dry  with paper towels. Cut into 2 squares crosswise, then cut each in half, forming 4 squares. Cut each piece diagonally, making 8 triangles. Set aside.

Heat canola oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high. Cut wonton wrappers  into thin strips. When oil is hot, add wonton strips. Cook until crispy and golden, flipping halfway through, for 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.

Add tofu to pan. Cook until tofu is golden, with 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer tofu to a plate and brush with Thai sweet-chili sauce.

Add the garlic, broccoli slaw and bean sprouts to pan. Cook until vegetables are tender-crisp, for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in oyster sauce. Season with fresh pepper.
