Notes

Always undercook your noodles slightly as they will finish cooking in the wok. Use high-quality sauces for the best flavor. Adjust the spice level by modifying the amount of chili peppers.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days or frozen for longer storage. Consider using zucchini noodles for a lighter option or prep in batches to avoid overcrowding the wok. Enhancing each serving with an extra garnish of basil and lime wedges can elevate the presentation!
