Notes

This recipe allows for easy swaps; you can use different proteins or adjust the spice level based on your preference.
Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The flavors mingle beautifully overnight.
For best results, avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain high heat and prevent steaming.
Try adding a fried egg on top for an authentic touch and more depth of flavor.
