How to Prepare Barbecue Tofu and Mango Sandwich [Vegan]

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat Sauté the bell pepper, onion, jalapeño pepper, and ginger until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the mango, lime juice, and lime zest and sauté until the mixture is heated through, about 3 minutes.
Remove from the heat, stir in the cilantro, and season with salt and pepper Transfer the chutney to a container, partially cover, and chill. Store in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it, up to 5 days.
On a large plate, coat the tofu slices with barbecue sauce on all sides.
Preheat on Air Fry at 360°F (185°C) for 3 minutes.
Brush the air fryer basket with oil and arrange half the tofu slices in a single layer Cook 15 minutes until glazed and lightly caramelized on the edges, turning halfway through and shaking the basket several times Repeat with the remaining tofu.
Pile the barbecued tofu on the buns and top with a generous scoop of the mango chutney and the arugula.
Serve.
