Notes

If you prefer a different flavor, you can use olive oil instead of sesame oil, or swap red pepper flakes for fresh chili slices. Feel free to add vegetables like broccoli or snap peas for extra nutrition. To make it vegan, ensure your soy sauce is vegan-friendly. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to three days, or frozen for a month. Reheat gently in a skillet to maintain texture. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes based on your spice tolerance. Enjoy!
